Campus Maps:
- This interactive campus map lets you look for specific buildings and parking lots on campus, including the Psychology Building and Parking Lot I on the south side of campus, and Les Prince Hall residences and the Peter George Centre for Living and Learning (PGCLL) on the north side of campus.
- Note that the Check In for Les Prince Hall residences has been moved to the Service Centre in PGCLL (Peter George Centre for Living and Learning). Enter the PGCLL building and look for signs for the Service Centre.
- We grabbed a screenshot of the interactive campus map and marked the most important buildings to get you started (PGCLL is now marked on that map).
- If arriving by car or taxi, go to the Service Centre in the PGCLL building where you will register and collect your room key for Les Prince Hall. There are short stop loading/unloading areas at the Service Centre and near each accommodation building for guests’ convenience.
- If you come by car and you requested an in-out parking pass on the Registration form, a parking transponder will be provided when you check in. Keep the transponder in the car, it is required for entry and exit from the lot. Parking information is available at the Service Centre. The in-out transponder allows you to leave and re-enter the parking lots near the residences.
- From Les Prince Hall to the Psychology Building is about a 15 minute walk. You might want to examine this map for walking routes from Les Prince Hall to Psychology.
- If you are NOT staying in residences and are coming only for the Saturday, please part in Lot I and save your entry ticket. We will give you a exit parking pass. You will need your entry ticket AND the exit pass to exit Lot I. Note that Lot I is NOT an in/out pass; once you leave you have to pay again to re-enter.
