Arranging parking for a visitor on the Main Campus
To arrange parking for a visitor on the Main Campus, please submit the online request form at least one business day prior to the visitor's arrival, before 4pm. If you miss this deadline, please call Parking & Transportation Services at (514) 398-4559 or send an parking.services [at] mcgill.ca (email).
If you indicate a FOAPAL on the web form, it will be charged for the period of time that the guest has parked. If a FOAPAL is not specified, the guest will be required to pay on the way out. Please click here for rate information.
Once the form is submitted, you will be sent a confirmation email with instructions within one business day. Request forms submitted after 4pm on Friday will only be processed on Monday morning. If you do not receive an email confirmation within one business day, please call Parking & Transportation Services at (514) 398-4559 or send an parking.services [at] mcgill.ca (email).
Once the limit of 25 visitor parking spaces has been reached, all other requests may be refused. The allocation of parking is made on a first-come first-served basis.
Updating or cancelling a request
Please parking.services [at] mcgill.ca (email) requests for updates or cancellations to Parking & Transportation Services before 4pm on the business day prior to the visitor's scheduled date of arrival.
Failure to advise Parking & Transportation Services of a cancellation will result in the maximum daily fee for parking charged for that guest, even though they didn't park. If a cancellation occurs due to an exceptional circumstance and you can only notify Parking & Transportation Services on the same day the guest was supposed to park, please send an parking.services [at] mcgill.ca (email) as soon as possible explaining what has happened. The decision to charge the maximum daily fee will be considered on a case by case basis.
