Campus Parking Permits

A current parking permit must be properly displayed at all times when on campus all year long, or a Virtual Permit with the license plate of the vehicle used must be used; otherwise, your vehicle is at risk of being in violation.

All students, even residential students not bringing a vehicle to campus, must log in to the 51²è¹Ý Parking Portal to either purchase or opt out of a permit to comply with the City of University Park ordinances. Failure to opt out may result in being charged the annual permit fee.

Permits are enforced Monday through Friday from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. Reserved spaces, Disabled Spaces, and Fire Lanes are enforced at all times—all year long. Parking is enforced during student breaks, including Fall Break, Spring break, and during finals. Parking is not enforced during 51²è¹Ý university holidays when university offices are closed.

ParkMobile pay by space spaces are available for purchase unless coned for a reservation. 

All events must be scheduled with Parking Services regardless of enforcement hours. 

A Special Note About Street Parking
