Fac/Staff Surface Lot Parking Permit Sales

Fac/Staff surface lot parking permit sales begin Monday Aug 1 at 8:30am. All sales take place online through Augnet's Parking Services. Those that register by Friday Aug 12th will be entered into a drawing to win a free permit!

Log in now to update your vehicle information. Public Safety does tow unauthorized vehicles. Make sure your vehicle is correctly registered so that we can contact you should we have any concerns with your vehicle. Properly registering your vehicle does not just allow you to avoid a tow, it also allows us to call you if you leave your lights on, windows down, or we notice a flat tire.

Visit the parking website for more details about parking permit sale dates, prices and underground permits. http://www.augsburg.edu/dps/parking_permits.html
