Parking Permit Changes for 2023-2024
New student permits will be available to order the Monday following each NSO starting May 22.
Returning students, staff, faculty and VERO will have the ability to order permits starting at 8:00 a.m., Monday, May 22, but your current permit does not expire until August 17, 2023.
Student, staff and faculty permits will be the same color and design. Faculty permits will be designated as such on the permit.
Permits will be front facing and registration is not complete until the permit is properly displayed on the inside, lower right corner of the front windshield (passenger side).
Vehicles can have no more than one WTAMU parking permit displayed on the inside of the front windshield. This is to avoid possible visibility/safety issues.
Temporary permits (including VHAC membership permits) will also be front facing and required to be displayed on the inside, lower right corner of the front windshield (passenger side).
Permits will expire May 17 of each year instead of August 17 starting in 2024.
