Registration for new 2022-2023 parking permits now open

Registration for 2022-2023 academic year parking permits is now open; follow the instructions below to obtain your new annual or semester permit.

Annual or semester permit: Which one is right for me?

An annual permit is valid for 12 months. It costs the same as two semester permits. Save 33 per cent on the per-semester price!

A semester permit is only valid for four months at a time:

  • Fall – September 1 to December 31
  • Winter – January 1 to April 30
  • Spring/Summer – May 1 to August 31

If you anticipate requiring year-round parking, we suggest purchasing an annual parking permit to avoid the third-semester fee.
