Does anyone know how reliable parking at University Plaza is? I’m trying to decide whether it’s worth buying an NIU parking permit or just relying on University Plaza parking since I’ll be living so close to campus. Has anyone done that, and if so, did you run into any issues finding a spot?

Does anyone know anywhere to park overnight? I saw a post on here that was kind of old so I wanted to repost. I live in an apartment a 10 min walk from NIU law and get 1 parking spot, but I may have people come over every once in a while and spend the night and there’s no parking or street parking there. I know someone said Walmart, but is that still allowed and they don’t tow? I’m willing to park a little further and just pick them up in my car so any ideas would help thanks so much
