If a parent or guardian would like to talk to any of the offices on campus about a student's account we will need a FERPA release before we can speak to you. 

This is true even if the student is a minor.

This is true even if the parent/guardian is covering the cost of tuition.

Further information can be found here

FERPA stands for Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act of 1974. It is a federal law that prevents academic institutions from talking to anyone other than the student about their account without express written consent.

• Regular Decals and Kiosk Permits: Any of the light yellow lots that you see in the map above
  • Regular decals do not work for meters (these are pink) , pay by plate only lots (these are green), or Gold lots (these are orange on this map) 
• Gold decal: Any of the regular decal parking lots and whatever gold lot that your decal is for.
  • Please note that gold decals do not cover every gold lot, only the one listed on your permit.
• Meter and Pay by plate parking: Anyone may park here as long as they pay through the passport parking app. 
  • Regular decals nor gold decals work in metered or pay by plate only lots. 

There is no free parking on campus. That being said, parking is not enforced over weekends or when university offices are closed. 

On the back of the citation there will be instructions on how to pay or appeal your citation.

In order to appeal you must: 

1. Go to to log into the parking portal.
2. Put in the citation number and the license plate of the vehicle. Click search citations
3. There will be an option to appeal the citation.
4. Write and submit your appeal.

There are three options to pay for parking on campus

• You can pay at one of the kiosks around campus (marked by blue box on the campus map). These will print out a small ticket that you can place in the dashboard of your vehicle. These permits will be valid in any regular decal parking lot. 
  • The only exceptions to this rule are the kiosk right outside of Signer's hall and the kiosks at the museum. The kiosk at Signer's hall will only do hourly permits for the pay by plate only lots, and the museum kiosks can only do hourly or daily permits. 
  • All other kiosks can sell hourly, daily, weekly, and monthly permits. 
• The second option is to pay through the passport parking app/ website.
  • Passport parking will work for meters, pay by plate only, and regular decal lots, you will just need to use the correct zone number. 
    • Meters are zone 909
    • Regular decal parking are zone 908
    • the pay by plate only lots are 907
• The third option is that you can get semester, 9 month, and annual passes from our office, or online through our parking portal. Prices and instructions are layed out here for staff, students, and faculty, and here for more general information

Gold lots are reserved for gold permit holders. There are 5 gold lots on campus, marked on the map by orange stripes on the parking lot. 

Each of those lots has its own waitlist

The customers on a waitlist are prioritized by the waitlist request date. Gold lots are limited by thenumber of available spaces and when spaces become available customers who are on the waitlist in the first position are awarded the chance to purchase a decal.

Sales of permits are restricted so that only those who have been awarded the right to purchase from a waiting list can purchase the permit.

Customers are notified by email when a space is available in a lot and they have a 48 hour time period to respond. If Parking Services does not hear from them within that time period the award will expire and the waitlist request will be marked inactive. They will have to reapply to the waitlist at the lowest priority position.

Customers can be on multiple waitlists at once. The customer will need to prioritize waitlists that they are on. For example, a customer may have a certain waitlist that they consider a high priority, but the customer may be willing to purchase a lower priority permit, if awarded, while waiting on the "higher priority" attempt.

For multiple choice waitlists, only one right to purchase will be granted per customer during each award cycle. For example, if a customer is on two or more lists (as described above) and the higher priority attempt is successful, no lower priority attempts can be awarded.

All of these lower priority attempts will be marked inactive (since the customer has the option to purchase the higher priority permit). If, however, only the lower priority attempt is successful, the higher priority attempts will remain active for future award cycles.

How to request to be on a waitlist?

A customer can be added to a waitlist by contacting Parking Services and asking to be placed on specific waitlist(s).

A customer can go to Parking Online at the Parking Services web site  and login. They will need to select the Add/Edit Waitlist choice and then select NEXT. They can choose the waitlist(s) of their preferred lot(s) and click on SIGN UP.

The waitlists that they are on will be listed below and will show the status and position on each waitlist. Customers have the option to delete a request and to reprioritize the waitlists.

In the case that your vehicle needs to be towed, the parking department will do its best to reach out to you first in order to avoid the towing fee. If they are unable to reach you, it will be towed to one of two spots: The Taku/Ballaine lot, or in some cases the Nenana lot. You can reach out to the Bursar's office at 907-474-7384 in order to find which lot it was taken to if you are unable to find it once you return.

If your vehicle is towed, a tow slip will be left on your windowshield along with what appears to be a citation. It is not a violation. That slip will serve as showing the amount that is due for the towing. We do not allow for appeals of the towing violation and will need to be paid. 

Yes. With the heavy snowfalls and ice build up that we experience, there are lot closures to allow for plowing and ice removal.

There is a schedule posted on the Facilities Services website for when this will happen, and is normally posted  after the first day of the Fall semester. 

There will also be signs posted in the lots letting people know they will be closed ahead of time to give people a chance to move their vehicles.
