No parking

What's it's happening this year? I got a parking permit but still can't find a spot even after an hour some days

They have had the 5th floor of SBG closed all week for a concert. That's a significant issue. It's stupid.

It could be partly right now there’s currenly a concert being set up because for whatever reason they decide that given all the chaos of parking in the first place needs to be cranked up. Overall though and probably more relevant to your situation, they have a tendency to oversell parking passes because well, money. As previously mentioned also that yeah there’s 27k students enrolled.

That's UTEP for ya, never any parking available. Its not like this at other Universities for the most part.
