The Residential and Academic Facility at NoMa and the Residential Facility at Solaire both have high walk scores and parking is limited. Generally speaking, Washington, D.C. is a very walkable city and there are a good number of people in the city that do not own cars. Also, there are short-term car rental options such as Zipcar and Car2go. That is why it is not necessary to bring a car with you to Washington, D.C.

If you would like to bring a car, you must log on to the Student Portal and submit a Parking Request Form, prior to your arrival, to receive approval to park a car at your housing facility. Parking is limited and therefore not guaranteed. The Office of Student Services will make every attempt to grant your request.

If your parking request is approved, there is a monthly rate per parking space, which must be paid by check-in day. All guests must register their vehicles with property management upon arrival. You will need to use the designated parking area and follow all building parking procedures. Vehicles that are not registered or are not parked correctly (e.g., parked in a reserved spot, blocking another space) are subject to tow at the vehicle owner's expense.

The Washington Center assumes no liability for damage, tickets, or towing that may occur to your vehicle or to one that belongs to any of your visitors. If you are granted parking, please remember to return parking decals/hangtags and garage passes to building management when you checkout. If you fail to return any parking passes upon your departure, a fee will be added to your damage bill. Please ask an Alumni in Residence for information detailing the replacement cost of parking decals/hangtags and garage passes.

Parking Request FormThis form must be received at least seven (7) days prior to your official check-in day. By filling out this form, you understand that:

• You are requesting to bring a vehicle for the duration of your internship
• Parking is extremely limited and requesting parking does not guarantee that you will be granted parking
• You will be responsible for paying all costs and fees associated with parking if you are granted a space
• The Washington Center assumes no liability for damage, tickets, or towing that may occur to your vehicle or one that belongs to any of your guests
• It is your responsibility to be aware of and to obey the parking regulations set by management of the building in which your vehicle is parked

Please complete the parking request form by logging onto the Student Portal.
