Parking/Transportation

• Campus Map
• Directions

Visitors are encouraged to use the ample public transportation system that serves the campus area. The bus, subway and commuter rail systems are all just steps away from our classrooms and residence halls. For those traveling a distance by car, short and long-term parking is available for a fee at the Alewife, Quincy and Braintree MBTA stations, just a short subway ride from campus. Due to Lesley's urban location, parking on weekdays is extremely limited and consists mainly of metered parking along Massachusetts Avenue. On weekends, all campus parking lots are available on a first-come, first-served basis.
