Dear Students,
UMBC virtual parking permits are now available for all new and returning students. All students are required to activate a new virtual on-campus parking permit each August. (Note: Please do not sign up for a visitor account; UMBC does not issue parking permits for visitors.)
New Students: Please go to the UMBC Parking Services Portal, register your vehicle(s), and activate your virtual permit.
Returning Students: Please go to the UMBC Parking Services Portal to review your account for any outstanding fines, verify/update your vehicle information, and activate your new virtual permit.
Registering your vehicle is not the same as getting a permit. Once vehicles are registered, please click on the "Get Permit" button. Parking permits must be renewed every August prior to the start of the new academic year. You may register up to three vehicles. However, you may only have one vehicle on campus at a time. Once you have registered your vehicle, please click on the "Get Permit" button. Failure to complete this step means no permit has been issued to you and as a result, you may be issued a citation.
Parking Permit Overview
Student parking permits are assigned as follows:
Zone A (Red): Commuter students
Zone B (Green): Walker Avenue Apartment residents
Zone C (Gold): Residential students
Please check out this UMBC Parking Zone Map to verify the locations of spaces in your zone.
To learn more about parking at UMBC, please read our Virtual Permits FAQ. You can also view our Commuter Student Parking Guide to find the best parking locations for your class schedule or campus visit.
