Faculty Multi-Campus Permit

The goal of the “Multi-Campus Parking Permit” program is to provide parking access for ASU faculty who teach at multiple ASU campuses. To assist in the process of identifying faculty who require this access, university deans and/or their assigned designees are to provide PTS with a list of eligible faculty. In order to ensure the success of this program and make certain that parking access is guaranteed in each of the designated locations, only faculty who are assigned to teach at multiple campuses will be granted this permit option by each respective dean. The Faculty Mutli-Campus parking permit is charged the premium access rate.

Vendors may be limited to two Vendor Permits. If access throughout campus is not required nor heavy equipment involved, vendors may apply for parking permits in designated lots, based on availability.

Tempe and Downtown Vendor Permit holders are authorized to park in any ASU campus parking lot or structure.

Vendor Permits purchased at West or Polytechnic campus can park in any lot on that specific campus. They are also valid in Lot 59 on the Tempe campus.
