On-Campus Resident Students
Freshman on-campus residents (resident students with less than 30 completed units) MAY NOT have a vehicle on campus at any time, unless you obtain a permit through a disability waiver or were selected from the parking wait list. Individuals who violate this restriction may be subject to parking citations and may be referred to Judicial Affairs. You may add your name to the wait list by following the links to purchase a permit. Once logged in, the system will prompt you to add your name to the wait list. You may also add your name by e-mailing a request with your name and TU ID number to UPARK@towson.edu
