Parking at Wash U, Metrolink, and School Buses

PARKING AT THE UNIVERSITY:
The best bet for parking on campus for this event is to park UNDER the Danforth University Center. There are ample spots and it is $1 per hour with a maximum of $5. Carpools encouraged. If you choose not to park in the garage, be mindful not to park in the areas of the parking lots that are designated with RED signs. On the weekends you can park for FREE in the parking lots with YELLOW signs.

USING THE METROLINK
There is a Metrolink station at the corner of Skinker and Forest Park Parkway. This station is next to Kayak's Coffee. From the station walk southwest towards Washington University and you will be able to follow Forsyth Blvd. up to the Danforth University Center. Plan your trip with this map.

SPECIAL NOTE ABOUT BUS DROP OFF
Some schools are planning on using one of their school buses to come to the convention. The university has asked that all buses drop off and pick up at the front of the university, which faces Skinker Boulevard. Please plan your time accordingly as this is a slight walk to the Danforth University Center. Here is a map to the front of the school. You will be arriving at the intersection of Brookings Drive and Hoyt Drive. It is easy to find.
