FAQ about Parking
If I signed up for a permit for a previous semester, will that information carry over to this semester?
No. You must sign up for a new permit every Fall and Spring semester.
Do I need a permit to park at the Institute during the Summer?
No permit is needed for general Institute parking during the Summer semester. Permits are required for faculty, auxiliary, and maintenance parking 24/7. Overnight parking is not allowed.
Once I have applied for a permit do I need to come pick up a tag for my car?

Can I have more than one plate on my permit?
Yes! You can have 2 plates registered under your permit, but only one vehicle may be on campus at a time.
