Parking
at the University
Due
to the short-term nature of most classes, garage parking
(located on Innovation Drive and on Zach Curlin) is recommended
as the most convenient and cost-effective option for our
customers. Parking in campus parking lots is allowed with
the appropriate parking permit at a cost of $20 per semester.
To obtain a decal to park in the campus lots, please contact
the U of M Parking Office at 678-2212.
You
may obtain an Invited Visitor Pass at the Parking Office
for $1. The Invited Visitor Pass is a one-day pass which
allows the visitor to park in any General Parking Lot and
at any metered space.
Complete
information about parking options is available at http://bf.memphis.edu/parking/visitor.php.
TigerPatrol,
an escort service provided to students, faculty, staff,
and visitors of the University, is available from 6 p.m.
until 2 a.m. To request an escort you should call 678-4663
(678-HOME). For more information, please go to http://bf.memphis.edu/police/tigerpatrol.php
Refund
Policy
Registration fees are refunded in full when the class
for which an enrollment was submitted is full, the class
is canceled by the university, or the university rejects
the registration form.
If
you wish to withdraw your registration, our office must
receive in writing your request for refund (minus $10 administrative
fee) at least two business days before the first class meeting.
After two business days prior to the start of the course,
there will be no refunds.
There
are no refunds for Defensive Driving, but your
registration fee can be applied to a future section if you
notify the office at least 48 hours prior to the class for
which you registered. A $10 fee is assessed for the first
schedule change. Afterward, the course fee must be paid
again in full.
Please
allow 4-6 weeks for refund processing.
Textbooks

books and materials are required in addition to registration
fees. These should be available in the UofM
Bookstore (http://umemphis.bkstore.com)
