Parking and Transportation Services

Employee Permits for Graduate Assistants

Employee passes are available for graduate students with continuing research or job duties over summer or winter breaks with a written request from a faculty member or supervisor.  

Winter Break

Due to the surplus of parking over the winter break, graduate students with a valid student parking permit may obtain a temporary employee pass allowing them to park in unrestricted (no 24-hour) green spaces. Students approved for this pass will receive an additional placard that must be displayed on the dash in addition to a valid student parking permit on the vehicle. 

Based on current construction projects, parking lots available for assignment are E-03 EXT, E-22, E-27, or E-37.
