Parking
Visitors arriving by car should park in the "Pay by plate" parking areas of the following MSU parking ramps:
- Shaw parking ramp (MSU Ramp 1), north of FRIB directly across Shaw Lane. The "pay by plate" area is on the lower level of the ramp (below ground level).
- Wharton Center parking ramp (MSU Ramp 3), east of FRIB and accessible from Shaw Lane. Visitors can park anywhere in the Wharton ramp to use the "pay by plate" system.
When parking:
- Do not park in any spaces that have a "leased" sign on the space.
- After parking, make note of the vehicle's license plate number. (You will be asked for your license plate number and the date/time you need parking. Note: It is OK to say you will be parking for the entire day.)
- Locate a pay station
- Note: You can't pay from the parking app. You must visit a pay station.
- In the Shaw ramp, the pay station is on the southeast side of the ramp, on the ground level as you exit toward FRIB.
- In the Wharton ramp, pay stations are located on level 2 (at the walkway from the ramp to the Wharton Center) and on level 1 (near all pedestrian exits).
- Do not use the "pay by plate" sections of either ramp from 2-6 a.m. (7 days a week).
- Visitors may park in the employee parking section of both ramps (no pass required) on:
- Weekdays (Monday - Friday): 6 p.m. to 7 a.m.
- Weekends: 6 p.m. on Friday to 7 a.m. on Mondays
Visitor Parking: A minimum payment of one hour may be required at $2/hour. Pay-by-plate requires entry of the license plate number and payment immediately after parking via the pay station at the lot. Pay stations accept credit/debit cards or cash ($1s & $5s only). They do not provide change. Refunds are not given for time not used.
