Parking Policy

This page provides a summary of the parking policy.
For more information, please see the Student Handbook.

All faculty, staff and students must register their cars. Due to limited space, JPCatholic strongly discourages students from bringing cars to campus and each student is only allowed one car.

Residential and commuter students must purchase a Parking Permit for their cars for $35/quarter. Residential students will be charged $200/quarter to park at Latitude, which includes the $35/ quarter fee.

NOTE: Student, staff, and faculty parking is prohibited AT ALL TIMES on:

  1. Grand Avenue between Centre City and Kalmia.
  2. S. Maple Street between Grand and 3rd.
