Student On-Campus Residence Permits
B Permits Students who reside on campus in UCSB residence halls have three permit options:
  • A B1 permit entitles you to park in 2 Parking. 2 Parking is within the quadrangle formed by Santa Rosa Hall, Anacapa Hall, Santa Cruz Hall and De La Guerra Dining Commons.
  • With a 22B permit, you can park in 22 Parking on the 4th level or in a designated section of the 5th level.
  • A B3 permit entitles you to park in 38 Parking near Harder Stadium.
Besides the designated parking lot or structure, a B permit is valid in 30-minute spaces and 20-minute loading zones. Nights and weekends, the permit is valid in visitor, student, faculty and staff spaces. Restrictions may apply. For example, the permit doesn't allow you to park in faculty or staff spaces marked "At All Times."

Quick access to topics below:
Am I eligible?
You are eligible for a student on-campus residence (B) permit as long as you reside in a UCSB on-campus residence hall (Anacapa, Manzanita Village, San Miguel, San Nicolas, San Rafael, Santa Cruz or Santa Rosa). Should you move to a location other than these residence halls, return the permit immediately to the Parking Services. Continued use of an invalid permit may result in costly parking citations and revocation of campus parking privileges.

Permits for parking at Santa Catalina are issued by Housing & Residential Services. Please contact their office for rates and permit information.

How do I apply?
Apply for your permit online at ThePermitStore.com. Once your permit order has been approved, a ten-day temporary permit can be printed. If you have not received your long-term permit within ten days, please visit Parking Services.

Is renewal automatic?
Renewal is not automatic. To maintain your parking privileges, place a new permit order with ThePermitStore.com.

What are my payment options?
This table compares the cost of the three B permits when purchased for a nine-month academic school year (Fall, Winter and Spring quarters).

Type Permit Parking Location Cost
B1 2 Parking, within residence hall quadrangle $648
22B 22 Parking, on 4th (and part 5th) level $486
B3 38 Parking, near Harder Stadium $324

You may choose to pay by cash, credit card, or check. Please be advised that the quantity of each permit type is limited. Permits are issued on a first-come first-served basis.

I don't need a nine-month permit. Do I get a price reduction?
A permit purchased during the school year is prorated and the appropriate fee charged for the remainder of the year. Permits no longer being used may be turned in for a refund. Please click here for more information about our permit return policy.
