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.
The “C” lot is the first lot you see when entering campus from Pershing and Alpine Avenue. It is labeled as Lot 1 and is located between the Eve Zimmerman Tennis Center and the Klein Family Baseball Field. New signs will be going up soon to make identifying lots easier.
Enforcement on the Stockton Campus begins September 1. Improperly parked vehicles or vehicles without a permit will be cited. Most citation fees are $40. From August 21 to Sept 1, you will receive a warning for improper parking. Please make sure you are parked in a lot for which you have a permit.
Do guests have to pay for parking?
Yes, all guests will pay when they are parking on campus during our enforcement hours; Monday-Friday 8 a.m.- 5 p.m., with the exception of our clinic patients, regents, emeriti faculty and prospective students. Visitor hang tags will no longer be honored.

Is my permit valid on other campuses?
