Admissions Pre-Arrival Guide - Fall 2020

PARKING PERMIT REGISTRATION. First-year and transfer students are allowed to have a registered vehicle on campus. NSU’s Public Safety Department is introducing a new parking permit system before the start of the year. Once it’s live, you will simply register your vehicle online. Once classes start, you will pick up your NSU Parking Permit decal at the One-Stop Shop located in the Horvitz Administration Building.

Meal plans are offered as a declining balance, which provides you flexibility to enjoy a meal or a snack when and where it’s convenient for you.

For snacks or something different, you can use your declining balance at the Starbucks, Outtakes Convenience Store, Flight Deck Pub, Einstein Bros.
