Parking Policies
PHILADELPHIA CAMPUS
A yearly parking fee is charged to park in the Monument Road Lot or in the PCOM Garage, weekdays from 7:00 AM until 5:00 PM. The fee runs from August 1 through July 31.
Payment is due on a per term basis and may be charged to the tuition account. Parking fees and instructions for payment of fees will be posted on the Access Control Department website.(Note: The information above is last years policy, and updated parking information will be reflected here sometime in April 2022)
There is no charge for students to park in the Garage or in the Monument Road lot between the hours of 5:00 PM and 7:00 AM Monday through Friday, and on weekends.
When choosing the parking plan with the Access Control, students will be registering the car(s) they will be driving. This ensures that the student’s ID and car “match.”
How to Access Parking Lots
Students access the parking areas by swiping their own ID badge at the entrance to the garage or lot, both at the time of entry and upon exiting. You must swipe regardless if the gates are up or down. If you fail to swipe on entrance or exit anti-pass back will prevent you from leaving or entering on your next swipe.
Please Note: Following another car out of the lot or garage without having used your own ID is a violation of PCOM’s parking policy and may result in the loss of parking privileges.
Parking on Campus During Rotations, Clinical Experiences
Students may apply for garage parking privileges that coincide with their clerkship schedule. The charge is $25 per clerkship, which must be paid directly to the Bursar at the time of application. Students can also elect to pay a $5 per day usage fee, payable upon exiting from the garage.

PARKING DURING INTERNSHIPS, ROTATIONS, CLINICAL EXPERIENCES - OFF CAMPUS

One in - one out
The Philadelphia campus parking utilizes an anti-pass back system. Parking works on a "one in - one out" policy.
It is important to always swipe in at the entrance, and out at the exit, regardless if the gates are up or down. If you do not follow this procedure it is likely you may be denied your next entry or exit.
Refunds
There are no refunds for the monthly Monument Parking options.
Refunds for yearly garage parking are granted only when on leave and will be prorated starting the first of the month after your leave begins.
