Students

In an effort to improve student equity and success, the Board of Trustees has approved the distribution of free semester-length student parking permits to all registered students.

To receive a semester-length permit at no cost, students must order their permit by first logging into the WVM Portal and then using the "Parking Permit" ordering link found within the portal. Using the link in the portal is necessary to ensure that your student status is confirmed, and the permit fee is waived at checkout. Your student ID number, car make, model, year, and license plate number are required at time of order. If the permit you order is currently valid for use, a temporary permit that you can print and begin using immediately will be emailed to you.

All permits must be displayed on the lower left corner of the front windshield and the entire permit, including the expiration date, must be visible from the outside of the vehicle.

Students may purchase a one-day "daily" parking permit at any of the daily permit dispensers located throughout the parking lots. Daily permits are $3.00 per day and all dispensers will accept cash, quarters, and credit cards.

Fall and Summer Grace Periods

A student parking "grace period" will be observed during the week immediately prior to the start of the Fall and Spring semesters and during the first week of these semesters. During the student parking grace period, no parking citation will be issued to any vehicle that is parked in a student parking stall without a permit; all other parking violations will still be enforced.

The specific dates of the Fall and Spring semester grace periods can be found in the parking information section of the class schedule.

Summer and Winter Sessions

There are no student parking "grace periods" offered during any of the summer or winter sessions. All vehicles parked on campus during these sessions must have a valid parking permit properly displayed at all times.
