Automobiles

Possession and/or operation of motor vehicles at Cottey College is a privilege given to all students by the College. Any violation of the College automobile rules may result in the loss of that privilege. 

All students must comply with the following procedures

  1. Car registration is free; however, all student cars need to be registered and have a parking permit on the front windshield of the car no later than two weeks into each semester. Students who change cars or get a car during a semester must register the car within one week of having the car on campus. 
  2. Except for Orientation periods, all cars should be registered with the manager of campus safety, security, and Clery. Failure to have a car registered after these deadlines could result in a $25 fine.

Parking in front of Main Hall is reserved for visitors. Parking is available for students living in Reeves and Robertson Halls in the lot south of Robertson Hall. Students in P.E.O. Hall may park in the lot west of Main Hall and the Center for the Arts parking lot. Parking is also available in the lot behind the Rubie Burton Academic Center. 

It is important to avoid restricted parking spaces designated with a sign or curb/pavement markings (paint). Any vehicle parked in a designated fire lane or other restricted-use parking spaces longer than the time necessary to load or unload may be ticketed and/or impounded. Parking in the Chapel Drive is limited to 15 minutes for students and employees. Students with disabilities requiring parking accommodations should contact the director of student accessibility and academic success for special parking permits. All lots have disabled parking spots available. Students are encouraged to utilize campus parking lots.
