Mike Ilitch School of Business
WSU's Facilities Planning and Management, Parking and Transportation Services, and Mike Ilitch School of Business have worked diligently with Olympia Development to provide parking options at both Olympia Development's facilities and WSU-owned facilities. Below is a list of available parking options and costs for the Ilitch School's students and employees. These rates reflect the ability to purchase daily parking through Olympia via credit card or to continue purchasing parking through Wayne State's OneCard/Parking Service Center via daily OneCard debit purchases or online semester pass sales. Using any of the WSU options will allow individuals to park for class during downtown events without paying the higher daily rates noted during events as long as your enter the Temple West garage prior to 6:30pm weekday event nights. When parking using WSU credentials, it is set up for WSU official business/classes and not intended to be used to attend events. Please note rates are subject to change.
