Locations & Maps
UW Youth & Teen Programs in-person classes are held on the University of Washington campus in Seattle and in downtown Seattle. Review the transportation and parking information below.
UW Seattle
UW Seattle is located in northeast Seattle, on a spacious, tree-studded campus situated between I-5 and Lake Washington.
Transportation and Parking
UW Youth & Teen families may park briefly on campus to drop off or pick up students. A short-term parking permit is required, and parking is allowed only in assigned areas and on dates and times shown. About seven to 10 days before the program begins, you’ll receive a link to print the permit.
We encourage you to carpool, ride bikes or take public transportation to campus if possible. The campus is served by numerous regular bus routes from all parts of the surrounding area. Two light rail stations — one in the University District and another near Husky Stadium — provide fast, easy access from north, central and south Seattle.
