As a student, faculty, or employee at SDSU, you are required to purchase a parking decal if you have a vehicle on campus, commute, or visit. You may purchase a decal from the University Police Department at any time during the year, but we recommend doing so as soon as you move in. 

When you come into purchase a decal please have the following information available to complete your registration: university address, driver’s license number, license plate number, vehicle make, model, year and color.

Student Resident Options

GENERAL - Most students who live on campus purchase the general student decal. This decal is numbered depending on where that student lives, but allows the student to park in other student lots without getting ticketed. Students are also able to park in the All Classes lots located through out campus with the general student decal. (Berg and Bailey residents are excluded in this option. They are only allowed to park in their lot and all classes lots.) The rate for a general student parking decal is $51.00 a year. (This rate changes from year to year and may not be accurate.) 

RESERVED - Students who seek a guaranteed parking spot all the time will benefit from purchasing a reserved stall.  This decal allows you and only you to park in the stall assigned.  As such you are not allowed to park anywhere else other than your reserved stall.  The rate for a reserved stall is $138.00 a year. (This rate changes from year to year and may not be accurate.)

Student Commuter Options

STUDENT COMMUTER - Students living off campus also need to purchase a decal to park on campus. The student commuter decal is only for students who live off campus. Residents who have a university address are not allowed to purchase a student commuter decal.  This decal allows commuters to park in lots designated as SC located throughout campus.  The rate for this pass is $51.00 a year. (This rate changes from year to year and may not be accurate.)
