Visitors

Nope, they can just show up, for up to 72 hours.

Everything so far is accurate. I would just add that Drew has a VERY open visitor policy, which I love. My girlfriend goes to Columbia and it's much easier when she comes here as opposed to me going there. Do you know how hard it is to visit a city campus for a weekend? You have to be babysitted by a student and you don't have free run of the campus. Drew's great about letting people come and stay, and I've rarely seen the policy disrespected. It's pretty cool.

yeahh i went to visit my best friend at a school in upstate ny and i had to sign a form, show ID, etc, etc. kinda made me feel like she lived in a prison...

I know what you mean. When I went to vist my boyfriend at kean I had to hand over my ID and it had to be a state issued one. If you were going to stay over night that had to be planned in advance and all the roomates had to sign a form, and once you were in you couldn't leave the dorm.

Yay open campus!

just remember FRESHMAN that if you do have a visitor stay over night and they drove on to campus you get them an overnight parking permit. Or they may come out the next day and find there car has been towed enjoy!

Where would you acquire an overnight parking permit?

you can get one at public safety. they need the liscence, regirstation, and i think the liscence plate number of the car

Thanks for the info!

Once the guard is in the booth, you have to get the pass there at the booth, NOT PS. And they can only park in Tilghman lot. It SUCKS in the wintertime. My boyfriend has gotten many a ticket because I've been too cold to walk to the dorm from tilghman and made him park in the forum D: The grammar of that sentence is terrible but I'm too sleepy to fix
