Resident freshmen and sophomores are not allowed to purchase parking permits nor bring vehicles to campus. If you are a resident freshman or sophomore and would like to request an exception to this University policy, please complete a Vehicle Exception Request. Your request will be reviewed and you will be notified of the outcome. Please note, documentation may be requested for exceptions pertaining to medical reasons. 

Please note that having a vehicle on-campus prior to submitting a Vehicle Exception Request or receiving the outcome does not guarantee your approval of an exception request. If approved, you are required to submit a new exception request when your parking permit expires.

If you are a freshman or sophomore commuter student seeking to park on-campus, please email Transportation and Parking Services, or call (202) 552-PARK (7275).
