        • Parking & Unloading

          Monday & Wednesday, 02/10 & 02/12 at Horton-Hardgrave Hall

          For the event on 02/10 – parking guidelines are not enforced on-campus after 5pm so you can park directly behind the building.

          For next day interviews on 02/12 - You will receive a link to register your vehicle for a temporary parking pass. This will prevent you from receiving a ticket during your visit when parked in the correct zones/areas.

          Tuesday, 02/11 at The Harbert Recruiting Center, Jordan-Hare Stadium

          Parking for events on-campus is difficult. We highly recommend utilizing a transportation service for traveling to the Career Fair. Uber and Lyft are transportation services available in the Auburn area. From most hotels and locations in Auburn this would likely cost you $10-$20 and save you significant time and frustration.

          Visitor parking is available on the Beard-Eaves Coliseum Lot at 650 Biggio Dr. Please allow yourself plenty of time to arrive and park as traffic can be very heavy at this time of day.
