Faculty and Staff Permits

Faculty and Staff permits are for employees and graduate assistants of Illinois State University. Each permit is eligible for an additional motorcycle or moped permit for purchase.

Annual permits are valid August 1 through July 31 and prorate monthly.

A Convenient Way to Pay

Full-time employees, non-tenure faculty, and graduate assistants can choose payroll deduction to pay for parking permits. Deductions occur September to May. The permit will be revoked if there is no sufficient payroll.
