How do I know the registration class code and body style of my vehicle?
Below is a sample of a New York State registration document that highlights where to find the registration class code and body style.
I WANT TO PARK A CAR ON CAMPUS. WHAT DO I NEED TO DO?
Students and employees should log in to My Parking Account. If you are a visitor to campus (including a visiting student from the Brockport Downtown) or park occasionally, park and pay at a meter or use a pay station located in lots T (Tuttle) and V (SERC). Payment can be made via ParkMobile payment app. Two-day permits are available at a pay station. Meters require payment until 7 pm, Monday - Thursday, and until 5 pm on Fridays. Visitors may also stop at the Conrad Welcome Center (corners of New Campus and Commencement Drives) to purchase a permit. Daily fee is $5; exceptions include parents of enrolled students.
WHERE CAN I GET A PARKING PERMIT IF THE CONRAD WELCOME CENTER IS CLOSED?
Visitors who arrive on campus after 4 pm may park and pay at a meter until 7 pm or use a pay station (see above). Payment can be made via ParkMobile payment app. The pay stations provide parking credentials for lots T, V, and V1 during the day and V1 and X overnight. If further assistance is needed after hours, visit University Police in Lathrop Hall.
WHERE CAN I PARK WITH THE PERMIT/PASS?
Visitors may park in any lot with the proper permit or at a meter with the appropriate fee paid. Exceptions are lots A, C, and Y. Pay station receipts allow for parking in lots T and V, during the day and lots V1 and X overnight. Students are required to park in designated lots that correspond to the color of their permit.
I RECEIVED A PARKING CITATION. WHAT CAN I DO ABOUT IT?
Students and employees are required to use My Parking to appeal your citation. Visitors may download an Appeals Form.
I HAVE A PERMIT AND WANT TO PARK AT A METER. DO I HAVE TO FEED THE METER?
Yes. Meters are enforced until 7 pm Monday-Thursday, and until 5 pm on Fridays. Meters are enforced during holidays, campus breaks, winter session and summer! Overnight parking is not allowed at a meter.
I AM PARKED FAR FROM MY RESIDENCE HALL. IS THERE AN ESCORT SERVICE AVAILABLE?
Yes, University Police will provide a walking escort. Call 395-SAFE or use a blue light phone.
I AM DRIVING A DIFFERENT CAR TO CAMPUS. WHAT DO I NEED TO DO?
Students need to add a vehicle plate number using My Parking to add a vehicle plate number to your account. You may add another car as long as the car you are registering is not driven by or registered to another student, employee, or affiliate of the University. Employees represented by a collective bargaining unit may purchase a second permit for $5 via My Parking.
I HAVE TO LOAD/UNLOAD ITEMS FROM MY CAR. WHERE CAN I PARK?
Some areas have a space with a sign indicating it is for loading/unloading purposes. You are allowed to park in these areas for up to 15 minutes with your flashers on. You may always park and pay at a meter.
I HAVE A HANDICAP PASS. DO I STILL NEED A CAMPUS PERMIT TO PARK?
Yes. All vehicles need a university parking permit. Visitors need both the handicap permit and parking permit displayed, you may park in any lot regardless of designation. Faculty/Staff and employees’ university permit is virtual. Always refrain from parking in metered spaces without proper payment, and service and reserved spaces.
MY CAR WON’T START. WHO CAN I CALL?
Call us at 395-PARK. We offer a free Motorist Assistance Program (MAP) to on-campus motorists. This program provides jumpstarts, lock de-icers, and tire inflation during our normal business hours.
