Hello Sailfish,

We want to make sure you are aware that PBA's Parking Committee has recently determined that incoming resident freshmen (including freshmen with completed credit hours) will not be eligible for on-campus parking permits in their first year of study. This is to ensure that sufficient parking will be available for students who commute to campus and those in their second year and beyond who live there.

To serve our incoming freshman student families, PBA's neighbors at One Parking have established a discounted rate in parking garages at The Square, a favorite of PBA students for shopping, dining, and more. Incoming PBA students can receive a discounted rate of $95 a month. We've polled some of our current PBA students who frequently walk to The Square, and they've reported that it takes about 13 minutes to get to the garage on foot and/or use West Palm Beach's free Ride Circuit option. Please see OneParking's flyer for instructions to sign up for this parking opportunity. You'll need your PBA email.

You can find instructions to apply for the OneParking discount HERE.

As you are considering whether or not to bring your car to college, please feel free to discuss options with your Admissions Counselor. PBA's campus and the West Palm Beach area are very walkable locations. The airport is about 15 minutes away from campus, and Miami and Fort Lauderdale are accessible via Brightline, which is also just a few minutes walk from campus. On any given day here in West Palm Beach, PBA students can be seen walking to many local coffee shops, restaurants, businesses, and churches in the downtown area and the beach. 

Congratulations to you during this exciting season as you take your final steps toward graduation! We're excited for you, and our team is praying for you as you prepare for your journey at PBA!

Please let us know what questions you may have.
