Fall 2024 Parking Privileges Information

March 26, 2024 |

All permits are First Come, First Served

Parking privileges are keyed to the vehicle primary plate number of the buyer.  At your initial purchase you will select your primary vehicle which will be linked to the permit – additional vehicle plate numbers can easily be added by notifying Security at MNSU-parking@mnsu.edu

Security vehicles, equipped with scanning devices, will patrol the lots to verify by high speed scanner each vehicle plate comparing them to those on file.

Student Gold - Purchasing Window

April 23 (9am) - August 25, 2024.

If there are any left-over Gold spaces they will show up in the “Student Window of Opportunity” which opens April 23, 2024.   Historically, student Gold permit buyers are not that many and usually populate “default” Gold areas like Lot 16 Gold, Lot 7 Gold, and Lot 2 Gold. Over the years,  we have yet to sell out all the Gold spaces. 

Purple and Orange – Purchasing Window

Enforcement coverage occurs from Monday, August 21, 2023 to Friday, May 3, 2024. Purple and orange permit stalls are not enforced between 6:30 p .m. and 2 a.m. on weekdays during the academic year. Stalls are enforced Monday - Thursday from 6:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. Outside of these listed times, during summer semester and when classes are not in session these stalls are NOT enforced. No overnight parking 2:00 a.m. to 6:00 a.m.

Green Residence Hall - Purchasing Window

August 6 (9am) - until gone.

Green residence hall parking privileges will go on sale August 1st at 9am when we have a better idea who has signed up to move into the residence halls.

Green permit users may park only in the zone designated. (i.e. Lot 14 can only park in 14; 16 can only park in 16 - they are not interchangeable.) Citations will be issued to violators. Enforcement coverage occurs from Monday, August 19, 2024 to Friday, May 2, 2025. Green permit Lots are not enforced during summer semester and semester breaks

“Free Lot” Users Must Register

Though there will be no charge or fee to park in this non-permit lot, we are asking everyone who uses it to register their vehicle plate number before Fall Semester begins by logging into the Parking Portal https://link.mnsu.edu/staridparkingportal  and selecting the Free Lot permit.  The Parking and Transportation Advisory Committee is requesting registration so finally it can be determined who uses the Free Lot, and should their vehicle leak fluid or be involved in an accidents Security will be better able to respond effectively.
