Parking permit
As the holder of a University rental contract, you are required to obtain a parking permit from Transportation & Parking Services if you plan to bring a vehicle to campus. Transportation & Parking Services is your contact for parking permit registration, regulations, enforcement policies, and fees, fines and appeals, and parking lot maps.
Princeton utilizes a virtual permit system. To obtain a virtual permit, login to the parking portal. You will need to know the license plate, model, and color of your vehicle. Permit holders must register any vehicles they wish to park on campus, though only one vehicle per permit holder may be parked on campus at any one time.
