Move-In Parking
We're looking forward to having you on our campus this fall! Due to the limited amount of parking, we have implemented a move-in schedule for this year to make your move-in process as smooth as possible. We also ask that you follow the instructions for your appropriate move-in day when arriving on campus and parking/unloading your car:
Oak Place Move-In: Wednesday, August 17th
- Please double-check your apartment number assigned to you in Pathway. You will go directly to the garage and park on the level of your apartment (i.e., if you are in 302, you will park on the 3rd level of the garage).
- Check-in tables where you complete any paperwork and receive your keys will be at the east end of the garage on your floor. Please check in there before going to your apartment.
- You will be able to move into your apartment after completing your paperwork. The garage will be open through move-in weekend, but only permit holders will be able to park there past Sunday.
6-Year Medical School Students, Oak Street Hall Move-In: Thursday, August 18th
- Please follow the schedule assigned by the Medical School as closely as possible. We will be moving in a large amount of you within a short period of time, and we will need to keep things moving as quickly as possible. If you cannot make your time, please plan to arrive after noon on that Thursday. We will be available to check you in until 5 p.m. that Thursday.
- The unloading zone will be in the small lot (marked in red on the 6-year Med School map) between the Administrative Center and Oak Street Hall. The lot does not have a lot of space, so you will need to unload your things quickly, then park in one of the long-term parking structures designated on the map.
- You will be able to check in at the Oak Street basement before moving your things up to your room.
Oak Street and Johnson Residence Halls Move-In: Friday, August 19th
- Please plan to arrive from the North end of Oak Street. Oak Street will be closed between 50th and 51st Streets from 7 a.m. to 2 p.m. on Friday, August 19th.
- If you are moving into Johnson, you may pull into the Johnson driveway, and park on the right side of the driveway in the unloading zone (marked in red on the map). Unload, then quickly move your car to one of the long-term parking areas noted on the map. We have limited space for students to unload, so it is important that you move your car as quickly as possible after unloading. We will have volunteers there to help you move your stuff.
- If you are moving into Oak Street, you will pass through the closed section of Oak Street to the unloading zone (marked in red on the map) behind the UMKC Administrative Center. Unload, then quickly move your car to one of the long-term parking areas noted on the map. We have limited space for students to unload, so it is important that you move your car as quickly as possible after unloading. We will have volunteers there to help you move your stuff.
- If the unloading zones are full, you may wait in the closed section of Oak Street until a space opens. We will be communicating to let you know when a space has opened. Please do not block traffic by parking on the street unless it is a marked parking space.
- Please do not park in the MRI or Russell Stover parking lots. Those lots are for their employees only.
- Students may check in outside to make sure all paperwork has been completed, then they will proceed to their floor to receive their key and other information.
- There will be a limited number of carts available for move-in, so please plan to pack as lightly as possible to keep the move-in process moving quickly.
- After you move your car to one of the designated long-term parking lots, we will have golf carts running between those lots and the halls to provide a ride back.
