Vehicle Registration

GENERAL

It is the responsibility of the decal holder to know these regulations. Lack of knowledge of these registration and parking regulations will not be justification for appealing parking citations.

All students who bring motor vehicles to the campus, and students, who live off campus but wish to park on campus, must register their cars, motorcycles, or bikes with campus safety and security. Students must register their vehicles by the close of business day, the final day of drop/add.

Unauthorized/unlicensed motor vehicles (mopeds, motorized scooters, dirt bikes, ATVs etc.) are not permitted to operate on college property, including college-owned streets, walkways and hiking trails. This restriction does not apply to authorized mobility assistance for individuals with special needs nor to college-owned golf carts and utility vehicles assisting with college operations.

Upon approval of the motorized vehicle registration form, a display decal is issued and should be placed on the left side of the rear bumper.

A vehicle registration card must be completed and signed prior to receipt of a display decal. Signing this card indicates that the vehicle owner/operator will follow all rules and regulations outlined in this information. No one is permitted to loan, re-sell, tamper with or otherwise permit the use of the decal on other then the registered vehicle. Registration decals are issued to a specific vehicle, and may not be transferred to any other vehicle. It is the responsibility of the decal holder to replace any missing or stolen decal. 
A current vehicle registration decal properly displayed (left side, rear bumper) entitles students, faculty and staff to park in designated parking areas only. Parking in unauthorized areas subjects the violator to a $10.00 fine.

Individuals to whom registration decals are issued are responsible for all parking/traffic violations associated with their vehicle, regardless of who is driving the vehicle.

Fees:

The vehicle registration fee is $25.00 for resident students, $10.00 for nonresident students,the registration decal is valid for the entire academic year.

Students may park on campus from 7:00 p.m. – 7:00 a.m. Monday –Saturday, all day Sunday and during breaks, only in student parking.

Faculty and staff are not charged for vehicle registration.

Parking on campus is considered a privilege.

Temporary vehicle registrations:
