Restricted Parking: No Public or Commercial Use

Moody Bible Institute's parking facilities are exclusively reserved for individuals with direct affiliations to our institution. We do not sell, lease, or offer parking spaces to outside entities, businesses, or individuals who are not visiting Moody or otherwise affiliated with our campus. Our limited urban campus parking is strictly maintained for the use of our students, faculty, staff, official visitors, and alumni.
