Unloading & Parking

Step 1: Every resident/vehicle will begin the check-in process in the GUC Parking Lot. HRL staff will confirm your arrival time, provide your move-in parking pass, key, and check you in. 

Step 2: Residents will then be directed to Pine Street. Apartment residents and Appleby East/West residents will depart to their assigned location. Residence Hall students will turn right towards Rice/Rivers. 

Step 3: Residence Hall students will enter the Rice/Rivers parking lot by the LaGrange Lot at the direction of University Police. 

Step 4: The Rice/Rivers parking lot is a drive-thru holding lot. You will receive information on opening events, maintenance request processes, immunization requirements, and a refreshing snack (Frios-best popscicles in the Shoals!) 

Step 5: You will be directed out of the parking lot and to an unloading zone based on your assigned hall. Mattielou residents will turn left. All other residents will turn right. Again, University Police will assist you. 

Step 6: You will unload your vehicle, take your belongings to your room, and immediately relocate your vehicle to the Parking Deck. Someone should stay with the vehicle at all times. We do ask that you move your vehicle from the parking deck to Lot OO at the end of the evening to provide space for the following day check-in process. 

Important Info: You cannot enter the unloading zone if you have not checked in at the GUC Lot as verified by your move-in parking pass (hang tag).
