• Transform UMSL

The University of Missouri–St. Louis is setting course toward a renewed and reimagined future that will serve our university, region and far beyond for decades to come.

Over the past several years, we came together to develop, align and champion our Campus Strategic Plan, Strategic Enrollment Plan and our recently approved Campus Master Plan – all of which serve as the foundations for our future growth and investments.

Dramatic transformation is underway at UMSL as we collectively seek to rise up our university community and our region. We are steadily moving forward on our ambitious plans and we have launched this site to serve as a home to share and communicate these efforts.

Pardon Our Progress

Beginning February 3, access to and through the North Quad will be limited. While current access from Express Scripts Hall to Lucas Hall and the Millennium Student Center (MSC) has been maintained, this thoroughfare will be disrupted during construction. We ask that you:

  • Follow directional signage to navigate alternative routes.
  • Allow extra time for transitions between buildings.
  • Utilize the temporary bus stop on the east side of Lucas Hall for accessibility.
  • Look for on-site ambassadors who will assist with navigation.
  • Utilize MSC Parking Garages for access to Lucas Hall and Clark Hall.
  • Utilize parking on West Drive and next to Anheuser Busch Hall for access to SSB first floor, ABH and Express Scripts Hall.
