Are first-year students allowed to have cars?
Yes, although all necessary services are within walking distance. Additionally, a good bus/light rail system exists in Dallas, and students ride free using their SMU student IDs. Many first-year students find that they do not need a car. The cost for a full-year parking permit is $200.
