Students who purchase a virtual permission for their car/truck may park their motorcycle on campus in designated motorcycle parking spaces ONLY after emailing Parking & Transportation Services to inform us of the motorcycle license plate number and state of registration.

The permission does not allow for both a motorcycle and vehicle to be parked on campus at the same time.

Students who do NOT drive a four-wheeled vehicle to campus may purchase a motorcycle-only virtual permission.
