SFSU is primarily an urban-based commuter campus; so parking is extremely limited. The Career Center encourages you to use our special employer shuttle van service or mass transit. We also strongly recommend that you ship your materials to the Career Center prior to the event.

Shipping Displays & Materials
Whether you arrive by car or mass transit, we encourage you to ship your displays and handout materials in advance. For security reasons, the University x-rays packages. Therefore, arrange for them to arrive early.

Be sure the address label includes the name of the event, and the following information:

< Event Name >
Attn: Career Center SSB 206
San Francisco State University
1600 Holloway Ave
San Francisco, CA 94132

Bring along a 'return shipping' label(s) for items you want returned to your office. The Career Center will ship them out on the next business day.

IF YOU DRIVE:

Career Center’s Shuttle Van Service
A special employer parking lot and a dedicated shuttle van will be provided for your use.
Parking will be available in the Lake Merced lot. For directions to the special shuttle parking lot (it is NOT part of the main campus), click here.

Schedule
The shuttle will transport employers between the Lake Merced parking lot and the event location every 15-20 minutes. The shuttle will begin service two hours before the event. Be sure to arrive early to allow enough time for set-up at the event site. The shuttle service will resume service at the end of the event and continue for one hour.

Loading and Unloading
If you use the shuttle, student workers will be available to help you unload and load your car, as well as transport your materials to and from the event site. This service alone should convince you to use the shuttle!

Public Parking Garage Information
If you decide to drive to campus and park in the Public Parking Garage, click here for directions to campus.

In the parking garage, you will have to HUNT for a parking spot along with the students. Be advised that the garage fills up early in the morning (often by 10 a.m.).

After parking your car, be sure to go to one of the many permit vending machines on each floor that dispenses parking permits. Parking permits cost $1 per hour up to a maximum of $5.00. The machines will take only $1 bills or quarters and do not return change. Before leaving the parking garage, be sure to place the permit on your car’s dashboard so it can be easily read.

The Career Center is unable to waive parking violations (even for our employers).
