Short term parking spot?
Hi, I'm going to be moving in Friday and need to stop by the campus to pick up OSAP. Does anyone know the best parking spot in terms of cost that is located near either Gilmour Hall or the Michael Degroote Centre for learning and discovery building?

On this map they are #52 and 20, respectably.

Help is much appreciated

All the parking on campus is the same amount (I believe). The only cheaper option you'll find is the satellite lots that are across Cootes Dr. If you park there, its something like $6 for the day and you can get on a shuttle bus that will take you to campus. However, the shuttle bus drops you off in the West end of campus, which is the opposite of what you want. Luckily, Mac is tiny and that means you'll only need to walk 5-10 minutes if that to get to Gilmour or MDCL.
All the parking lots on campus are $5/hr between 8 and 5 (I think its 5.. it might be 4). You can also park on side streets off campus for 1-2 hours for free (check the signs, make sure you're on the right side of the street etc)
