Hours
first a 30-minute information session, then a 90-minute walking tour

A standard University of Montana campus visit takes two hours: first a 30-minute information session, then a 90-minute walking tour. The university offers tours Monday through Friday at 9:30 a.m. and 1 p.m. Mountain Time, with some Saturday tours at 10 a.m. Mountain Time.

If you prefer to explore independently, follow the 14-location route on the digital campus map. You can also pick up a pamphlet at the Admissions Office in the Gilkey Building. Check the university’s official site before you go for current tour availability and visitor guidance.

Parking rules depend on when you arrive. Visitor parking regulations apply on weekdays from 7 a.m. to 5 p.m.; parking is free on weekdays after 5 p.m., weekends and University-observed holidays unless signs say otherwise.

During the weekday regulated period, a permit is required. Hourly parking costs $1.25 per hour, and you can pay for hourly or daily campus parking through the Passport Parking app.

For a quick stop, look for free spaces marked with orange signs. These have a 20-minute maximum, or the posted time limit, and each vehicle may use a Quick Stop space once per day.

Visitors with a federal, state or municipal disability parking placard or plate may use campus disability spaces, but also need a daily pass or hourly permit.
