NKU Parking Services

"Honestly just looking to steal student’s money. I was parked in the visitor parking where i was told multiple times I could park there. As an international student I didn’t see this as an issue so I got a citation of $100 for parking in reserved parking and I didn’t get no warning and I saw another student get their car towed just for parking once. I understand my irresponsibility and I should’ve known but who’s there to explain as a foreigner? I kept seeing other students parked their cars there and only my bmw got citation. Everyday I drive pass I see a red pontiac parked why don’t they get citation? I ended up paying $165 for a parking pass, $100 for citation THAT WAS DENIED when i appealed it and extra $2.50 because it got denied, in total i paid: $269. Good job NKU keep stealing money."

"The people are mostly sweet and helpful, its just incredibly stupid to charge students nearly $300 to park on a campus we pay to live and study on. For a piece of plastic! Its not my fault nku was dumb and put us in debt, but now they're raising the prices of everything to compensate for their mistake. And not being able to get a parking pass because i had tickets for not having a parking pass is quite literally the most insane thing i have ever heard. I hate this office, its just a cash grab from students who already pay over $10k to live and study here."

"Worst parking experience I've ever had. I spend $250 for a parking pass only to find that there isn't any parking. I then receive a $150 fine for parking for a very short time period in a handicapped spot, which there was 2 other handicapped spots in the same area. (I was there for maybe 15 minutes). I sent in my application to appeal and it was denied. What kind of management team charges a student who's most likely in debt for something so minor? I'm sorry that I didn't want to miss turning in an assignment before the start of class because of the deadline. It's not my fault that there is traffic every morning due to thousands of people commuting on NKU's one lane roads. It's as if they're intentionally trying to take students money by not providing enough areas to park. They've set up a huge scam in order to profit tens of thousands a dollars a week. Not to mention, they wrote down the wrong LP#."

"Got a ticket for something I blatantly did not do, and took photos showing that I in fact, did not do what the citation claimed I did. Filed an appeal, didn’t get a response for over an entire month and a half, and when I did, it was denied with no explaination, again, despite having photographic proof of that not being the case. I’ve enjoyed most of my experience at NKU, but I’m intimately aware that I am far from the only person who’s had similar problems with NKU’s parking services, and their parking security, who evidentially either gives out tickets maliciously, or because they’re not paying attention, possibly both. News flash, we’re college students, we can’t afford to pay $52 every time one of you decides to be a dumbass."

"Scam artist who try and get whatever money they can from college students who already overpay for their parking passes. On top of not having enough parking for students, they also don't clearly mark spots and trap motorists into parking in spots that are "in the aisle way." TRY GETTING A BARRIER TO SHOW WHERE YOUR AISLE ENDS LIKE ANY SMART PERSON WOULD."
