Directions

Your visit destination and parking depends on which type of visit you signed up for—tours and visits (like Weekday Visit or a Saturday Phlash Tour) or a large event (like an Admitted Students Day or a Campus Preview Day). Directions to UW-Green Bay can be found on our Maps and Directions page.

Tours & Visits

If you're joining us for a Weekday Visit or a Saturday Phlash Tour, you'll park in the Weidner Center Lot and make your way to the Admissions Office.

  1. Enter onto campus using Main Entrance Drive off of Nicolet Drive
  2. Take the first left onto North Circle Drive (You'll see woods on left, campus on right.)
  3. Take the fourth right into the Weidner Center Lot. When entering the Weidner Center Lot, you'll find your own personalized parking spot. If you don't find your spot, no worries. You don't need a parking permit.
  4. After you park, walk toward the tallest building on campus (the Cofrin Library).
    Green phoenix emblems will be painted on the ground to help guide you.
  5. Destination: Admissions Office is located in the Student Services Building. A big green awning will let you know that you've reached Student Services. The Admissions Office will be right in front of you (big glass doors).

Parking

No Parking Permit Required

UW-Green Bay guests don't need a parking permit. Our campus uses virtual parking permits to identify the UW-Green Bay community and guests parked on campus. Please make sure your license plate is facing the lane of traffic to help us keep this process moving. More parking information can be found on our Visitor Parking page.
