While parking and permit options vary slightly, the following rules will be enforced campuswide: 

    • All permits must be unobstructed and easily visible from the exterior of the vehicle. 
    • All faculty, staff, students, vendors, contractors and visitors must have a permit to park on campus at any time. The only exception is visitors who park in metered spaces - a permit is not required for visitors parking and paying for a metered space. 
    • Parking permits are in the form of virtual permits, decals, hang tags and placards depending on their classification. 
    • All rules and regulations are in effect during Spring, Fall, and summer break and holidays. 
    • All permits must be verified and linked to your vehicle’s license plate number, make, model, color and year. 

Clemson University Park and Transportation Services offer a variety of parking locations and shuttle information maps. Employees and students are encouraged to explore all available transportation and parking options.
