Campus Access and Parking Information

Gate Controlled Access

After stated hours there are two entrances to the campus. They are: the north entrance at Riverside and State streets; and the south entrance at the intersection of Webster, Marshall, and North President streets. The north entrance serves as the Dispatch Center for Campus Safety and is staffed 24 hours a day. The gate at the south entrance is normally staffed during night hours. Persons driving a Millsaps registered vehicle will be allowed to enter, one vehicle per gate cycle. Non-Millsaps vehicles will be stopped and then allowed to enter only after the driver has signed in with the gate officer.

More detailed information on campus access, security features, reporting crime statistics and more can be found in the College's Federal Crime Report Information.

Zoned Parking System and Vehicle Registration

With the exception of short term guests and visitors, all vehicles parked or driven on campus by students, faculty, or staff must be properly registered with the College and identified by the current numbered decal provided. Students must register their vehicles at the beginning of each fall and spring semester, summer terms, or the earliest date there after if a vehicle is brought to campus later during the semester.

Adequate parking is available, campus-wide, for Millsaps registered vehicles. However, daytime parking congestion is a fact of campus life. The congestion is usually created by too many drivers competing for spaces in the central core of the campus. To minimize congestion, we enforce a zoned parking system. Students are expected to familiarize themselves with the parking regulations. A complete listing of parking regulations, zones and associated policies can be found in the Traffic and Parking Brochure, which is provided to each student. This brochure outlines all parking policies, ticketing and appeals information, and provides a campus map. Questions or concerns regarding parking should be referred to the Director of Campus Safety.
