More Registration Information

• If you are on a waitlist, you should purchase the permit you had for the previous academic year. You will receive an email later if you are eligible to transfer your permit to another zone. Do not wait to purchase your permit because your name is on a waitlist.
• Employees interested in purchasing a 2025 Fall semester permit in the Girard Park Circle Parking Garage, please note this permit will be available to purchase starting at 7:30 a.m. on Tuesday, Aug. 5. All other annual permits will be available for purchase at 12:01 a.m. on Friday, Aug. 1.
• Individuals with custom license plates (UL, BB, EE, etc.) are encouraged to enter the license plate exactly as is appears in the License Plate box of the vehicle registration.

All faculty/staff parking zones on the main campus are at maximum capacity, so newly hired employees must be assigned to the perimeter parking zone (PER).

Employees who wish to change their allotted permit zone should email a request that includes the zones to which they would like to add their name to geauxpark@louisiana.edu.

The Office of Transportation Services reviews all Wait Lists in September of each academic year to determine if any transfers are available.
