Cars & Bikes on Campus

Cars

All students may have the privilege of using a motor vehicle (including motorcycles) on campus provided it is registered with Trane Stop (open 8 a.m.-5 p.m., Monday-Friday in Saint Edward Hall) within the first two weeks of the school year, or as soon as the vehicle is brought to the campus. Parking permits are $60 a year for resident students; $30 a year for commuter students. You may order your parking decal in advance.

Bikes

Bicycles may be kept in rooms as long as both roommates agree. Bike racks are also located outside residence halls. All students bringing bicycles to campus are asked to register their bicycle with the Office of Campus Safety. Campus Safety will register your serial number and engrave an identification number on the underside of the frame in case it is lost or stolen.

Campus Safety

Saint Leo University Campus Security officers patrol campus 24 hours a day, every day of the year. Safety of the University community is a priority and officers’ emergency "blue light" poles/ phones are strategically located throughout campus providing extended protection. The Office of Campus Security & Safety is located near the entrance to the University.
