Parking permits for 2024-2025

Parking permits can still be purchased for the 2024–2025 school year. All returning students are encouraged to purchase their parking permits prior to returning for the fall semester. In August, parking permit sales open up to first-year and transfer students. At that time, parking will be on a first-come, first-served basis for ALL students.

If you have already purchased a parking permit, please check your Augustana email for your receipt. If you have not received a receipt but sent in your parking form and payment, please email Trisha Hines-Morrison.

Who needs to purchase a parking permit?

Any student who wishes to park in a campus owned parking lot/area is required to have a valid parking permit.**

• Residential parking lots/spaces at 11th Ave Flats, Andreen, Andy/Bart, Arbaugh, Erickson, Naeseth, Parkander North & South, Seminary, Swanson, Westerlin, and TLA houses/apartments.
• Commuter students who wish to park in a campus parking lot designated for commuter parking. 
• Seniors living off campus are considered commuter students and may purchase a commuter permit. 

**Parking permits are assigned by availability, not by student preference. Parking lots are assigned by housing assignment. Augustana will place students in the closest available spot at the time of purchase.
