Registering for Student Parking

In advance of registering, please view the list of student permit types and their associated fees. Fall permits are valid through January 24, 2021. Know what type of permit best fits your needs based on your living and learning arrangement during Fall 2020.

Registrations can be purchased and managed through our parking management system. Students may have two vehicles on their registration at once; however, only ONE vehicle may be parked on campus at a time. Use our system to add or remove vehicles from your account.

Purchase your permit here.

When registering, please use an email that you check frequently. Important parking reminders and notifications will be sent to this email address.

cancelling your registration

Students may cancel their parking registrations at any time by contacting transportation@umd.edu. When cancelling, please include your name and UID, as well as a message stating your intent to cancel your parking registration. We offer refunds for student parking registration fees based on the schedule found on our Student Parking Fees and Permit Types page.

parking waitlist

If a student is unable to register because their preferred lot is full, they may join a parking waitlist. Students can register for a waitlist through the parking management system. Waitlists are one of the tools we use to balance lot registrations at the beginning of the semester. As the semester progresses, we monitor lot capacity and availability. As spaces in lots become available, students on the waitlist are contacted via email and offered parking in the lot. Waitlist requests are open to any student regardless of parking status. They are free and expire at the end of every semester.
