spring 2023 Parking Registration
Registration for Spring 2023 semester permits is open for all eligible students.
Switching Your Current Lot Assignment
Follow these steps if you would like to switch your current lot assignment:
- Purchase a permit in your desired lot.
- Email transportation@umd.edu with your name, UID number and the lot assignment you would like to cancel.
Before you register, make sure you've read through our permit types and fees page to decide which permit best fits your living and learning situation.
Cancelling Your Registration
Students may cancel their parking registration at any time by contacting transportation@umd.edu. When cancelling, please include your name and UID, as well as a message stating your intent to cancel your parking registration.
NOTE: The parking refund schedule will be adhered to regardless of any changes to the academic calendar. Please read this refund addendum in its entirety before purchasing your permit.
Parking Waitlist
If a student is unable to register because their preferred lot is full, they may join a parking waitlist. Students can register for a waitlist through the parking management system. We use waitlists to balance lot registrations at the beginning of the semester. As the semester progresses, we monitor lot capacity and availability. As spaces in lots become available, students on the waitlist are contacted via email and offered parking in the lot. Waitlist requests are open to any student regardless of parking status. They are free and expire at the end of every semester.
All students are eligible to register for on-campus parking. In advance of registering, please view the list of student permit types and their associated fees. Registration for fall and annual permits opens on a rolling basis according to credit level beginning in July.
Know what type of permit best fits your needs based on your living and learning arrangement for the 2022 - 2023 academic year.
Student parking registrations are valid for your primary lot assignment, as well as your student overflow lot, Lot 4. You may be directed to park in your overflow lot OR another lot on campus if athletics, a special event or construction affect your assigned lot.
