How do I purchase an E-permit?

Will I receive a physical permit pass?

Yes, you can add multiple vehicles to your permit. However, only one vehicle can be on campus at a time. If more than one vehicle is parking on campus this will result in multiple citations.

Where can I park?

Students may only park in lots designated for students, and faculty/staff may only park in lots designated for faculty/staff. (MAPS)

I just purchased a new vehicle with temporary tags. Do I need to register it?

• Yes, please register any new vehicle, even with temporary tags, that you will be parking on campus. Temporary tags must be registered as a license plate number, not a VIN number.
   
• Once the permanent plates are received, revisit the portal and add your new plates. Make sure your license plate is entered correctly; one letter or number off will result in a virtual ticket.

I have state handicap accessibility. What if there are no accessible parking spaces available?

All patrons (students, faculty, staff, visitors and vendors) who require accessible parking, temporary or permanent, to park in university parking areas must obtain a valid Rutgers Virtual Parking Permit.

• To obtain a Virtual Parking Permit visit: ipo.rutgers.edu/dots

If you have accessible parking permissions, you may park in any parking space in any lot provided if it is not a reserved stall.

I see a lot of reserved spaces available, am I able to park there?

No. Reserved spaces are designated for specific individuals within the university.

I received a virtual ticket and I do not believe I deserved it. How can I dispute it?

You may log-on to your parking portal and appeal the virtual ticket. Please give time for a response. You will be notified of the decision via email.

How can I pay my parking virtual ticket?

You may pay your virtual ticket online through the parking website go.rutgers.edu/parking by credit or debit.

I have a rental vehicle, what do I do about parking?

You must go to the portal and register the license plate

• Click the “+ Add” button in the vehicles section.

Do I need to purchase a permit if I only plan to park on campus at night and on the weekends?

• Yes. Any vehicle parking on university property must purchase a permit.
