Student Permit
Who is eligible
Currently enrolled students (undergraduate and graduate) who reside more than two miles from campus are eligible to purchase a Student parking permit. (Click here to determine whether you are ineligible by reason of residing within two miles of campus.) A utility bill, lease agreement, or BARC statement may be required as verification of your residence.

Currently enrolled students are eligible to obtain Night & Weekend parking permits regardless of place of residence.

Where to park
Student permits are valid in lots designated for students. Please observe any additional restrictions that apply to areas or spaces within these lots. A Student permit is also valid in time zones for the time designated, and in loading zones for 20 minutes.

Please note the permit is not valid in restricted areas, restricted spaces, reserved spaces, metered spaces, Coastal Access spaces, or lots/spaces marked for vendors.

How to 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.

When to renew
Renewal is not automatic. To maintain your parking privileges, place a new permit order with ThePermitStore.com.
