Can I change my permit to another parking location?
Yes, but only if you receive a new offer for another location from your waitlist. Contact the Parking Office once the new offer is received and we can swap your location.
Can I register more than one vehicle on my permit?
Yes. Up to three vehicles may be registered, but only one vehicle may be parked on campus at any time.
What if I am only taking term one only. Can I cancel my commuting permit and get a refund for the remaining year?
Yes. You may cancel your permit at any time and receive a refund for the unused portion.
Can commuting students purchase monthly parking permit?
No. Commuting undergraduate students may purchase only a parking permit for the full academic year.
How are resident student permits assigned?
Resident student permits are issued through a waitlist system based on availability.
Does joining the waitlist guarantee a permit?
No. Joining the waitlist does not guarantee a permit offer or one specifically in your preferred top ranked areas. Some locations are more difficult to get into as they are centralized in a very populated area.
