2019 Summer Modified Enforcement

Modified enforcement for summer break begins on Wednesday, May 15, 2019 and runs through Friday, August 16, 2019. During this time all current TU permits will be valid in all designated core, resident and overflow areas.

All other parking restrictions and regulations, including faculty/staff areas, remain in effect during modified enforcement. Regular enforcement will resume at 6 a.m. on Monday, August 19, 2019.

A valid TU permit is required year-round to park on campus from 6 a.m. to 8 p.m. Monday through Thursday and 6 a.m. to 3 p.m. on Friday.

Garage Commuter Areas Renamed to "Core"

All designated commuter areas in parking garages have been renamed "Core." There are no changes to restrictions or eligibility for these areas.

Freshman Students

Any student with less than 30 units is considered a freshman and subject to certain parking restrictions. Freshman resident students are not permitted to purchase a permit or have a vehicle on campus. Limited exceptions with documentation may be granted. Freshman commuter students may only purchase Overflow or Evening permits. 

Faculty, Staff and Students

Faculty, staff and students have several permit options. Select Student Parking or Faculty & Staff Parking and follow the easy steps to buy a permit. You will need your TU NetID and password to login to your eParking account. After purchasing your permit, carefully read the permit purchase letter you will receive via email. It will provide specific information regarding your permit type and other important details.

Visitor Parking

Visitor permits can be purchased at yellow paystations or by downloading the ParkMobile app from the App Store or Google Play. Paystations are located in all garages and parking lots on campus.

We have transitioned the campus to a pay by plate system for virtual visitor permits that is verified by a license plate.  The new system went live during the Spring, 2018 semester. Restricted permits (those using a code) and Green Visitor permits are obtained from the paystation and MUST be displayed face up on the dashboard of the vehicle.

Enforcement, Citations and Appeals

All vehicles parked on campus must have a valid permit during enforcement hours. Those hours are Monday through Thursday from 6 a.m. to 8 p.m. and Friday from 6 a.m. to 3 p.m.

If you have been issued a parking citation, all citations must either be paid within 30 days from the date of issue or appealed within 25 days from the date of issue.

Parking Signs

Please read all parking signs carefully and park only where authorized.

Parking in Nearby Commercial and Residential Areas

Students and faculty/staff members are cautioned NOT to park their vehicles in nearby commercial parking lots or residential communities while on campus. Many of these parking lots and communities have instituted parking programs that restrict parking to patrons or residents during specific times and violators are subject to fines and towing.
