PARKING PERMIT QUESTIONS

You may register for a parking permit as soon as University records show your status as a Transfer student. Please note that it may take time before your transfer credits show up in our parking system. If you are unable to apply for a parking permit in the meantime, please contact the Academic and Transfer Advising Office to obtain written proof showing the number of transfer credits coming in and bring this with you to Parking Services.
