📖 About this office

Western Kentucky University runs a passport acceptance office on the ground floor of the Downing Student Union, on the main campus just south of downtown. Despite the campus setting, it is open to the general public — not only students, faculty, and staff — and it provides the forms and passport photos needed to complete an application in person. That makes it a practical alternative for anyone living or working near the university side of the city.

The office accepts DS-11 applications for first-time adult and child passports and, like every acceptance facility, requires an appointment. If you find campus parking and hours easier than the downtown counter, this is a solid choice within Bowling Green. The same statewide fee and document rules apply at this office, and our Kentucky passport guide spells them out.

💡 Good to know

The office is on the ground floor of the Downing Student Union; visitors should plan for campus parking and book an appointment ahead by calling (270) 745-4658. If a downtown option suits you better, the main post office is listed on our Bowling Green page.
