The Countdown to College is coming to a close! We can't wait to see you soon! We have highlighted a few locations below but make sure you take some time to check out our interactive map for additional resources.
If you're living on campus this semester, the Show Me Center will be your first stop on move-in day. Find information about parking, check-in times, directions, and more in the New Student Move-In Guide. 
Parking permits will be available for pick up during the move-in process for students living on campus.
 
Commuter permits will be available for pick up starting Monday, August 15 at Parking Services inside the Department of Public Safety office at 1401 North Sprigg Street.
 
Parking Services will begin assigning permits Monday, August 8. Students may begin checking their Southeast billing statements after August 12 to learn what permit they received. The type of permit is identified by the beginning characters of the permit number on the account and the fee charged for the permit. Please do not attempt to determine the permit you received by going back to the application process. 
 
Reminder to always park in your assigned lots!
The Southeast Bookstore offers a selection of Southeast apparel and supplies, such as notebooks, writing utensils, electronics, and snacks. It's located on the first floor of the University Center on the corner of Normal and Henderson Street. The bookstore is also home to a U.S. Bank branch. 

Don't forget that all clothing is 25% off on the first Friday of each month!

While some courses require the purchase of new or used textbooks or online access codes which can be purchased here, you can find most of your textbooks at Textbook Rental.
