Permits can be purchased through two different processes. If a permit is currently available, you can purchase the permit immediately by logging into your Parking Account. Fall and Spring permits are in high demand and are assigned via a parking lottery. You must sign up for the parking lottery waitlists in order to enter the lottery. Permits assigned via the lottery process are not free. To purchase a permit or register for a parking lottery click “Access Your Account” below.
- To buy a permit available for sale, click on Purchase a Permit or Purchase a Summer Permit. If you do not have an account, please click Create an Account.
- To enter a parking lottery click on “Add edit/waiting list”. Note: To view all available waiting list choices ensure that you have selected the appropriate classification and sub-classification by clicking on “Manage my profile”.
- Select your preferred parking permit or enter a lottery waiting list (waiting list selections may be prioritized). Take a quick look at the map(s) to find the Lot or Structure that best fits your needs.
