Our office will provide a temporary (2 week) parking arrangement until Disability Management advises us of your needs, if any.

If you're a student with a temporary disability lasting less than three months, provide a note from a health care provider on letterhead, explaining the duration of your disability, the distance you can walk and if you are able to board and ride a bus. We will provide you with access to parking for up to three (3) months.  If you do not already own a permit, a permit fee will apply.
