Many changes in regulations were initiated this year. So here are some tips to help make your visit smooth & pleasant.

Alumni and Returning Recruiters
Because SMU is growing with two large construction projects, parking may not be the same as you remember.

  • First, there is NO FREE PARKING...anywhere.
    While you may appeal parking tickets, our office can no longer get a citation overturned for anyone.
  • Visitors (including alumni) may not park in Airline Garage without a hangtag obtained from Park and Pony before coming to campus.  An open gate does not grant permission for free access.
  • If the arms are up at any garage or parking lot, restrictions and fees still apply. Citations will be issued.

Where to Park
Each garage is a little different. Preferred parking is in one of 2 garages. Click the garage name for more information. From North on 75, exit Mockingbird, then please proceed to SMU Blvd. and turn left. Follow SMU Blvd. to Airline Road, then turn right. Proceed along Airline to Dyer Street, then turn left.  From South on 75, exit University, then please proceed to SMU Blvd. and turn right. Follow SMU Blvd. to Airline Road. Moody Garage is located on your left at the corner. Turn left on Airline to Binkley Road, and Binkley Garage is located on the right.
