Penn State has taken every opportunity to make the campus accessible to drivers and passengers with disabilities. Regular and van accessible parking spaces exist on campus to meet the needs of visitors. You are able to park in any open (non-reserved, non-metered) parking spaces on campus with your ADA plate/hang tag. Additional information about ADA Parking can be found on the parking web site.
Upon arrival to campus for NSO, your first stop will be our NSO drop-off location, just in front of the Pollock Building. The next step will be to visit NSO Check-in. The check-in process is only for students; if you are traveling with any guests, they will be directed to the HUB-Robeson Center to meet up with you upon completion of the check-in process.
