Where To Go If You…

Want to register your car…Any student operating a vehicle on campus must purchase and display a valid registration decal and park only in those areas designated for student parking. Failure to comply with the parking regulations may result in a fine, having your vehicle towed from campus at your expense, having an immobilizing boot attached to the wheel of your vehicle or losing your parking privileges. Go to Campus Security on the first floor of the Gabhart Student Center for your decal. Need to cash a check…Students in good standing with the university may cash checks up to $20 at Belmont Central.


Want to work on campus…
The Office of Career Services is the starting point for finding a job –
on campus or off. Campus jobs pay minimum wage (with few exceptions) and may provide a convenient opportunity to work around your classes.


Need long-distance phone service…
Call the toll-free number on the back of your student ID card to establish a long-distance telephone account in your name with MCI™. Phone cards are available in the Belmont Bookstore for international calling.


Want to workout…

The Belmont Fitness Center is located on the second floor of the Beaman Student Life Center. The exercise area includes treadmills, recumbent bikes, ellyptical trainers, a StepMill, a Hiker and a whole line of modern Cybex weight equipment and free weights.

A: Bruin Bucks may be redeemed at the six food service locations managed by BU Food. These include two convenience stores (The Corner Court Bistro and Whats’ Bruin), three quick service restaurants in the Curb Cafe (Pete’s Arena, Sky Ranch Grill and Salsa Rico), and our full service Dining Hall in the Gabhart Student Center.

Q: How and when do we sign-up for meal plans and/or Bruin Bucks?

A: Meals may be used in the full service dining hall. The dining hall provides a wide range of offerings including traditional foods, exhibition cooking, pizza, grilled items, a full salad bar and fabulous desserts.
