Motorcycle and Moped Permits
Motorcycle and moped parking areas have been designated throughout Grounds. A map can be viewed here.
A UVA Motorcycle/Moped parking permit, displayed on the left front fork, is required whenever parked in these areas. UVA Motorcycle/Moped parking permits are also honored in all UVA parking areas designated as Blue/Commuter. More details can be found here.
Parking Eligibility for First Years
University policy prohibits undergraduate first-year students from having vehicles on-Grounds during their first-year (fall & spring semesters). The policy governing use of vehicles by first-year students can be found in the Undergraduate Record (http://records.ureg.virginia.edu/). First-year parking exceptions are only granted in extraordinary circumstances.
First Year parking requests will be reviewed after First Year housing assignments go out to students in early July. Please complete the First Year housing exception application in Mid-July. Request for exceptions should be made via this online request form.
The form includes:
- Residence area on Grounds
- Reason for the request
- Length of time for the request (full academic year or for a certain period of time).
First-year student athletes with regular practices away from Grounds should notify their coaches.
Students who receive an exception are eligible to purchase an S6 parking permit (as space allows) or a Storage Permit.
Renewal from Year to Year
Student parking permits do not renew from year to year (Exception: Graduate students who receive a paycheck from the University).
