Pay for visitor parking at UNC
Single Guest
The closest parking lot we can validate is the Dogwood Deck on Manning Drive.
Your administrative assistant will need:
- Guest name
- Guest license plate or photos of the front and back of their parking stub.
- Date/time they will need covered.
The admin assistant will validate the parking after the guest arrives, which will allow them to leave without paying.
