There are multiple parking options around campus, but we suggest the Ohio Union South Garage. The address for the garage is 1759 N High St, Columbus, OH 43210. The cost is $1.75/hour; this is the closest parking option and avoids potential parking tickets. You will be directed to check-in from the garage.
