Fall 2025 Parking Permit Sale Information:

Fall permit sales will open in two waves, based on your classification, and will be live from 8:00 AM to 9:00 PM each day.

August 5 – Faculty/Staff, Juniors (60+ completed credits), Seniors, Graduate Students, Ed Specialist, GR Special-NCF, and Post-Baccalaureate students.

August 7 – Freshmen, Sophomores (under 60 completed credits), High School students, and Others.

Unsure of your classification? If you've completed 60 or more credits, you're considered an upperclassman and qualify for the August 5 date.

Please note that all permits are limited. Once they sell out, you’ll have the option to join a waitlist—while a spot isn’t guaranteed, requests will be reviewed as availability allows.

If you don’t have a parking permit, we strongly recommend not bringing a vehicle to campus, as parking is limited and permits are required.

If you have any questions, don’t hesitate to get in touch—we are happy to help.
