Where to Display Permit Stickers

Vehicles that have tinted side windows must place the permit on the lower front windshield on the driver's side. Please remove all expired permits from your vehicle. The permit authorizes the use of the appropriate designated parking facilities only.

Transferring Permits

Permits are physically transferable from one vehicle to another, provided the permit registrant owns both vehicles. Permits and ID numbers may not be shared between two individuals nor can they be transferred from one individual to another.

Update Records When Obtaining New Vehicles

When a student or staff member obtains a new vehicle, he/she must link to  and enter the new vehicle information prior to physically transferring the permit sticker and bringing the new vehicle on campus. If a student has an additional vehicle he/she wishes to register, they may do so only after purchasing a current full-year permit, and must contact the Office of Campus Safety & Security to request pre-qualification for the second permit.

A permit does not guarantee a parking space in any particular lot. Please be aware that all student lots are first-come, first-served. Father Bernard Court, Saint Benedict Court and Collins-Falvey permits are restricted in number due to a limited amount of parking spaces. Once the allotment is issued, residents of those complexes must contact the Office of Campus Safety and Security at 641-7290 to be pre-qualified for a Resident permit and must park in the appropriate designated lots for Resident permits, not in the other lots listed above.
