General Parking Guidelines

In general, a WKU parking permit is required to park on the Bowling Green main and south campuses, Monday through Friday.

Permit eligibility is determined by employment status for faculty/staff members, and residency status for students.  The type of permit issued determines where you may park.

Only purchase WKU parking permits from Parking & Transportation Services.  Ownership of permits is not transferable. A permit purchased from an outside source may have been lost, stolen or forged.

To purchase your permit online:

• Have your student ID number and email password.
• Have your vehicle's make, model, year, color and license plate number.
• Log into your online parking account using your WKU email log in.
• Select "Purchase a Parking Permit" from the menu.
