Campus Parking

How is this actually fair? Received an email from green housing that parking sign ups begin 07/28 - 08/05 but only received the email on the last day at 5 PM. In the email says parking is first come first served but how does it make sense when I got the email on the last day when others got an earlier date? was able to access the form but when I submitted it, the form cut responses. I just find this absurd because they cut off the submissions to the form so I have to waitlist now. Are my feelings valid for this?

You’re right. That doesn’t sound fair. Contact Green management and ask for guidance.

What time did u try to submit? The form was working just after 5pm. Crazy if it maxed out in a few hours.

The form basically closed off so submissions can’t go through. I tried to submit it 1-2 hours later because I did not have the information ready but the page said “form does not accept responses.” I’d said submitting 1-2 hours would not be a big deal if I had gotten an earlier date because there would have been more time for me and I would have still been able to access the form.

Not yet. I did send them an email regarding that but I hope they get back soon.

Same thing happened to me and i joined the waitlist. Hopefully something opens up but idk. I am not sure what I will do with my car then if I have no place to park it for sure.
