Are freshmen allowed to have vehicles on campus?

Yes, all students are allowed to have cars on campus; however, as an urban university, parking can sometimes be a challenge.

What public transportation is available?

The city of Richmond maintains the Greater Richmond Transit Company bus system, which has four bus lines that make stops on campus. Full-time VCU students can ride GRTC buses year round using the VCUCard and a transit pass, available through the VCU Parking and Transportation Office and can get to almost anywhere in and around the city limits. GRTC transit passes are available at no cost to full-time registered VCU students.

Is there a way to get between the Monroe Park and MCV campuses?

VCU maintains a shuttle bus service between its two campuses. The shuttles runs Monday to Friday, 7:15 a.m. to midnight during the academic year. Visit the Parking and Transportation Services Web site to view schedules and maps for the entire transit system.
