Parking Services offers fully digital uptown campus parking permits for purchase online.
All vehicles are monitored by a parking enforcement vehicle equipped with cameras that read license plates. This means permit holders will need to make sure their license plate is visible. We ask that permit holders make sure to double check the information license plate information they add online. Please also be sure the vehicle is parked so that the license plate faces the driving lane, so that the license plate can be read by parking enforcement.

How It Works
Our goal at Parking Services is to make parking on the uptown campus more efficient for everyone. Follow these easy steps to purchase your parking permit:
- Create or log into your account on our web portal.
- If you are purchasing a daily permit, click on the visitor page and follow the remaining steps.
- Select your permit type. If you do not know what permit type you need, visit the parking permits section in the parking rules.
- Enter your license plate number.
- Double check you entered the correct license plate number.
- Purchase your permit.
- When you arrive on campus, make sure your license plate is visible from the driving lane.
- Your license plate will do the rest by acting as your permit.
- This digital convenience is powered by the parking enforcement vehicle, which is equipped with external cameras and fixed cameras at the entrances and exits of the Diboll Garage that link to the Parking Services computer system to verify whether a vehicle has a valid permit. This includes daily permits purchased online, using the Park Mobile app, or at the physical T2 pay station.
Tips for Entering License Plate Numbers in the Portal
To ensure the cameras read license plates accurately, please follow these instructions when entering your license plate information:
- If you have a zero on your license plate that is the letter "O" on your vehicle registration, then enter your vehicle into your account twice: once with the zero and once with the letter "O."
- If you have a specialized plate, enter your plate exactly as it appears on your license plate and not how it appears on your vehicle registration. For example, a Tulane personalized plate may only show the number (123), but on the vehicle registration it may show TU and the number (TU123). You must enter only the "123" shown on your license plate.
