Parking Registration & Permits

Whether you are visiting The University of Tulsa for a day, living on campus, or commuting to class or work, having a convenient and safe place to park is a priority.  Our goal is to help you understand the ins and outs of parking on campus. All vehicles parked on university property must be registered with the Parking & Card Services Office.

The University of Tulsa features an on-line Vehicle Registration Process for its community, long-term guests, and affiliated vendors. Registration is required for all motorized vehicles which may be done any time on or past the date your Registration sequence begins, as identified in the “Parking Registration Calendar” below.
