Student commuter (C) permits will go on sale beginning at noon on Thursday, July 7, for all commuter students with 60 or more credit hours. Sales will continue until permits are sold out.



Commuter permits for the new academic year cost $336 and are only available for purchase for a full academic year.



Commuter Parking Areas

Students who choose to purchase a commuter permit – Scott Street Lots (C9) or Cornerstone Garage (C5) -- are authorized to park within their designated commuter area and are not approved to park in other commuter areas. They may also park in student periphery (K) parking areas and in most employee intermediate lots after 3:30 p.m.

For more details about commuter permits, please visit our commuter permits page.

Students seeking less expensive options may also consider purchasing a periphery (K) permit.

 

Purchasing a Permit

To purchase a permit online, simply log into your customer account using your linkblue ID and password.

Permits purchased online can be mailed to your home mailing address or picked up in person at our customer service center, located at 721 Press Avenue. Regular office hours are 7:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday.

If you plan to pick up, please allow 24 hours for processing. Pre-purchased permits can also be picked up at our exterior express window, which opens at 6:30 a.m. weekdays.

All outstanding parking citations must be paid before a permit purchase may be processed. Citations may be paid online or in our office.

Permit renewal time also offers students a good opportunity to consider other methods of transportation to, from and around campus, rather than single occupancy vehicles. Transportation Services offers several attractive incentives to encourage both employees and students to consider sustainable options, such as biking, busing, walking or ride sharing. For details about these programs, visit the Incentives section of our website.
