You can also call the Continuing Studies Registration Desk (between 8:30 am and 4:30 pm) to find out where your class is.
If your course is cancelled, or if there's a room change: an email will be sent to the primary email address on your Continuing Studies/Netlink account.

There are several parking lots for use around the campus. However, all vehicles parked on-campus must display a valid parking permit Monday to Saturday, 24 hours a day. There is no charge for parking on Sunday or statutory holidays.
Daily/hourly parking permits can be purchased from permit dispensers in UVic parking lots: limited metered parking is also available for visitors. Meters and permit dispensers accept cash or credit card.
