Electric scooters and electric bicycles are not permitted inside any building owned by North Greenville University due to fire hazard. This includes but is not limited to academic buildings and dorms.

Students wishing to obtain a medical permit must obtain approval from the Office of Student Flourishing (Note: a medical permit does not negate the need for the current year parking permit.) Students who obtain a medical permit in addition to their parking permit may legally park in any yellow or white lined space during the duration of the medical permit. Individuals with an NGU issued temporary medical permit may not park in the blue lined state-mandated handicapped parking spaces on or off campus.
