Student parking permit application checklist

To purchase a permit in-person, please follow these steps:

1. Complete a Permit Application Form (1,160 Kb, PDF)
2. Show your Cal Photo ID card or driver's license, to verify registration status

   If you are unsure of whether or not you are registered, please check using the Tele-BEARS (InfoBears) system, visit them on the web. 

   Grad students should contact their home department (not the Graduate Division) with registration status inquiries. Unregistered grad students must verify registration with a letter from your home department. The letter must:

   • be an original (not a copy) on UC or department letterhead
   • include student name and ID#
   • confirm your department affiliation
   • confirm enrollment status
   • be signed by department representative
   • include department representative's contact phone number

   Residence Hall parking

   Current Res Hall permit-holders may renew their permit in person by providing a student ID and payment.

   New residents must submit a completed Residence Hall Parking Application in place of the Permit Application form. You will be placed on a waiting list and be notified when a space becomes available. Please contact us with questions via email at or by phone at (510) 643-7701.

3. Provide payment in full for the cost of the permit.

   Permit costs are pro-rated for the semester based on purchase date, and will be determined by the customer services office at time of purchase.
