Parking Permits

  • All students are strongly encouraged to register their vehicle with the Campus Safety Office and receive a parking decal for their vehicle

  • Parking permit decals are issued by the Campus Safety Office at any time

  • In the event that something happens to your vehicle while it is on campus, the decal provides a method of contacting you quickly

  • To receive a parking permit, complete a Vehicle Registration form (available at Enrollment Services in the Lindbloom Student Center, at the Cashier's Office in the Lindbloom Student Center and at the Campus Safety desk in the Administration Building) and turn it in at the Cashier's Office (located on the second floor of the Lindbloom Student Center) or the Campus Safety Office. A parking permit decal will be assigned to you at that time

Staff Parking
