Permit Options

Academic Term Commuter Permits

Recommended for students who expect their schedules and/or credit load to change from term to term.

  • Must be purchased at the beginning of each academic term, only valid for the term listed on the permit.

Spring term permits are valid from 03/23/24-06/23/24.

Purchasing a Permit

Spring-term parking permits can only be purchased in person at the Transportation office. 

NOTE: PSU is not responsible or liable for damage to or theft of your vehicle or its contents.

Accessible Parking

Accessible/disabled parking spaces are available in all parking lots and structures operated by PSU. Any PSU parking permit is valid in any accessible space, regardless of location, when displaying a valid DMV disabled parking placard. Day and time restrictions still apply to time-limited PSU permits.

Permit Refunds

Parking permit charges are based on possession of the permit, not use. Pro-rated refunds are available until the end of week eight for fall, winter, and spring terms. Permits must be physically returned to Transportation & Parking as soon as they are no longer needed to receive the maximum refund available. Please visit our office at 1812 SW 6th Avenue to initiate a return.

Permit Regulations and Locations

Permits may only be utilized by one vehicle at a time, and the vehicle must be registered with PSU Transportation & Parking Services.
