Before purchasing a permit it is best that both the student and parents read all information regarding parking on the CMU campus to avoid parking citations. For any additional questions or information, please call Parking services 970-248-1921 M-F 8am-5pm.
Online ordering provides a convenient way to obtain a permit. At the time you order, your permit can be paid with a credit/debit card or billed to your student account.
Your license plate is your permit (after it is registered and the permit fee is paid). Multiple vehicles can be registered, but only one vehicle may be parked on campus. Make sure your license plate is registered with 100% accuracy. For example, is that digit the letter O or number zero? Is that digit the number 1 or letter I?
