Rest assured, first-year students don't need a car on campus! JCU offers convenient transportation options, including shuttle service to popular shopping and dining locations, including Target, Whole Foods, and the Van Aken District. Rideshare options and Cleveland鈥檚 RTA (buses and trains) are also available, and JCU frequently hosts student events with free transportation provided.

Sophomores park in nearby off-site lots with shuttle access, while juniors, seniors, graduate students, and commuters can purchase passes to park on campus.

The 海角社区 Police Department (JCUPD) is primarily responsible for ensuring the safety of all persons living, working, or visiting the University. This requires considerable attention to regulating the flow of traffic and the appropriate use of parking. We have developed rules to help govern traffic and parking on University property. Adherence to these rules will facilitate the safe and efficient use of parking areas and roadways around campus.

Please read our regulations carefully. If you have questions, please email parking@jcu.edu or call the JCU Parking Office at 216-397-2277, Monday-Friday from 9:00 a.m. - 2:00 p.m. or call the JCU Police Department at 216-397-1234 after hours.

Effective September 2024, updates to security at the Notre Dame Lot have been made. There have been multiple cameras installed as well as a night security guard from 11:00 pm - 6:00 am.听
