Registration for Winter 2023 parking permits is now open. If you need to extend your Fall semester permit to cover the Winter semester (January to April 2023), or purchase an annual* permit (January to August 2023), follow the instructions below.

Note: If you have already purchased an annual parking permit valid for the period of September 2022 to August 2023, no action is required.

Extending your existing Fall semester permit:

If you already have a Fall semester permit (valid September through December 2022), you can extend it to cover the Winter semester (valid January to April 2023) by registering and paying for it on the .

If you don’t extend your Fall-semester permit, your parking access card or hang tag will expire after Saturday, December 31.

Purchasing a new annual or semester permit:

If you don’t already have a semester or annual parking permit, use the website to register and pay for your Winter-semester (January to April 2023) or annual (January to August 2023) permit online.

Please ensure the IPASS application indicates January 1, 2023 as the activation date.

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

• Fall – September 1 to December 31
• Winter – January 1 to April 30

All annual permits expire on August 31, regardless of date of purchase.

If you anticipate requiring year-round parking, we suggest purchasing an annual parking permit now to secure your lot assignment and avoid the hassle of re-registering for parking each semester.
