Any student who wishes to park a vehicle on a university parking lot any time of day or night–including after 4:00 p.m. weekdays, on weekends, during regular business hours of 8:00 a.m. – 4:00 p.m. weekdays, and during breaks– must register that vehicle with Transportation and Parking Services.
Resident student vehicle registration will begin, Tuesday, August 2, 2022 at 9:00 a.m. Please visit the WFU Parking Portal to register your vehicle. This website is also a great place to find information about parking during specific events like Thanksgiving, Winter Break or Spring Break. It’s highly recommended that you go online prior to August 2nd and ensure your vehicle information is correct, including the correct license plate number.
Important note: In order to access the parking portal, you must specifically select your WFU Google account if you are logged into multiple accounts. For example, if you are only logged into your personal (non-WFU) Google Account, you will not be able to access the portal. Either you need to only be logged into your WFU Google account or if you are logged into your personal Google Account, you will need to also log into your WFU Google Account and select that one from the list when prompted.
