General Registration Information
Students will not receive a physical permit to display on their vehicle. Permits are virtual and directly linked to the license plate associated with the vehicle registered with the permit. Students may print their permit at any time if they would like to have a physical copy.
Students encountering issues while attempting to register for a permit are urged to avoid double-clicking or using the back button, as these actions may result in errors with your transaction. If issues arise while attempting to complete the registration, please exit the site and contact Transportation Services for assistance.
ADA Parking access and Short-Term Parking needs
Students with a state-issued Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) placard who wish to obtain a supplemental parking permit for additional parking access should contact the Transportation Services Office to receive access to register online for these permits. General student parking registration must be completed online prior to applying for this option, and a copy of the student's ADA placard ID card must be provided.
Students registering for short-term permits (issued on a weekly basis) must register in person at the Transportation Services Office. Not all student permit options are available for short-term parking.
