Why was I denied for an “A” permit?

“A” permits are for faculty and staff only. Confirmation is made through an employees’ Pacific email address. Please make sure to use this email when purchasing an “A” permit. Students should purchase a “B” or “C” permit.

What if I do not have a Pacific email address?

A Pacific email address is only needed to confirm faculty and staff “A” permits.  Anyone can purchase a “B” or “C” permit. This is perfect for guests who frequently come to campus.

Will I receive a parking permit?

You will no longer receive a physical permit. Under the new virtual system, your license plate functions as your permit. You only need to check your email for a confirmation email showing that your permit purchase was approved. Also, please make sure your vehicle has a front and back license plate.
