Spring student parking registration Tuesday, Jan. 7

UNIVERSITY PARK, Pa. -- Transportation Services has announced that spring 2025 student parking registration for University Park students will begin at 10 a.m. Tuesday, Jan. 7

A limited number of all student permits will be available for purchase, with options based on whether students live on or off campus, and for on-campus students, their residence hall area. First-year students will be permitted to purchase a permit based on their residence location. Registration will be available exclusively online, and full details on student parking permit options is available at the Transportation Services website.

ELIGIBILITY

  • Active Penn State ID and Access account
  • License plate(s) information (vehicles must be owned by the student or a member of the student's immediate family)

GENERAL REGISTRATION INFORMATION

Students will not receive a physical permit to display on their vehicle. Permits are virtual and directly linked to the license plate associated with the vehicle registered with the permit. Students may print their permit at any time if they would like to have a physical copy.

Students encountering issues while attempting to register for a permit are urged to avoid double-clicking or using the back button, as these actions may result in errors with your transaction. If issues arise while attempting to complete the registration, please exit the site and contact Transportation Services for assistance.

ADA PARKING ACCESS AND SHORT-TERM PARKING NEEDS

Students with a state-issued Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) placard who wish to obtain a supplemental parking permit for additional parking access should contact the Transportation Services Office to receive access to register online for these permits. General student parking registration must be completed online prior to applying for this option, and a copy of the student's ADA placard ID card must be provided.

Students registering for short-term permits (issued on a weekly basis) must register in person at the Transportation Services Office. Not all student permit options are available for short-term parking.
