Finals Week and Holiday Closedown (Dec. 16 - Jan. 1)

Parking Updates

UNO will provide open-parking Monday, Dec. 16, through Wednesday, Jan. 1 in all general-use spaces on campus surface lots and garages. Permits are not necessary to park during this time. Regular enforcement resumes on Tuesday, Jan. 21.

Please note that certain areas on campus are excluded from open-parking, such as pay-to-park areas where time limits are still enforced (Lots A, C, and the seven spaces in M), ADA spaces (reserved for those with an ADA permit), reserved spaces, loading zones, motorcycle areas, carpool spaces, compact stalls, visitor spaces, EV charging spaces, driveways, drive aisles, and fire lanes. These areas are enforced 24/7.

Shuttle Updates

From Monday, Dec. 16, through Thursday, Dec. 19, campus shuttles will run with limited service from 7 A.M. to 6 P.M. for finals week.

There will be no shuttle service from Monday, Dec. 23, through Wednesday, Jan. 1, due to the holiday closedown.

During finals week, the shuttles will be servicing the Scott Court, Scott Crossing, and Criss Library stops only. There will be no shuttle service to the Pacific Parking Garage, Maverick/University Village, Milo Bail Student Center, H&K, PKI, and Mammel Hall stops.

Note: From Monday, Dec. 9, through Thursday, Dec. 12, evening shuttle service will be extended until 12 A.M. to assist those studying and preparing for finals at the Criss Library.


January Session ("J-Term") and Martin Luther King Jr Day

Parking Updates

UNO will observe valid-permit parking Thursday, Jan. 2 through Friday, Jan. 17. A valid UNO parking permit will be required but permit restrictions are relaxed, so a surface lot permit may park in the garage, or vice versa.

There will be open-parking for the Martin Luther King Jr Day holiday on Monday, Jan. 20. Regular enforcement resumes on Tuesday, Jan. 21.

Please note that certain areas on campus are excluded from valid-permit parking, such as pay-to-park areas where payment and time limits are still enforced (Lots A, C, and the seven spaces in M), ADA spaces (reserved for those with an ADA permit), reserved spaces, loading zones, motorcycle areas, carpool spaces, compact stalls, visitor spaces, EV charging spaces, driveways, drive aisles, and fire lanes. These areas are enforced 24/7.

Shuttle Updates

From Thursday, Jan. 2, to Friday, Jan. 17, campus shuttles will run with limited service from 8 A.M. to 6 P.M. for the January Session.

During the January Session, the shuttles will be servicing the Scott Court, Scott Crossing, and Criss Library stops only. There will be no shuttle service to the Pacific Parking Garage, Maverick/University Village, Milo Bail Student Center, H&K, PKI, and Mammel Hall stops.

There will be no shuttle service on Monday, Jan. 20, in observance of Martin Luther King Jr Day.

Routine shuttle service will resume on Tuesday, Jan. 21.


Spring 2025

Parking Updates

UNO will resume regular enforcement on Tuesday, Jan. 21. For those students that purchased Fall semester permits, you will need to purchase a Spring semester permit to park on campus. Spring permits go on sale at 8 A.M. on Monday, Dec. 16. Limited permit sales for the East Garage and West Garage for faculty/staff and commuter students may be available temporarily until limits are reached.

Shuttle Updates

Routine shuttle service will resume on Tuesday, Jan. 21.


Cold Weather Service

Campus shuttles have transitioned to cold weather service. Shuttles will attempt to load, unload, and depart as quickly as possible in effort to reduce wait times during the colder months. Times listed on the UNO Shuttle Tracker App will not be as accurate during this time.
