Parking Services

Yes. All vehicles must have a validly displayed decal or permit to park on campus. Permits for visitors can be obtained from the Parking Information booth on FGCU Blvd, the Welcome Center, or the Parking Services office.

As soon as possible all students, faculty, and staff should file a report with the University Police Department so that the permit can be tracked. Lost or stolen decals or permits will not be replaced and the registrant will be required to purchase a new decal or permit at a fee of $30 for Students, Faculty/Staff.

Selling a pass or decal is considered permit fraud. There is a fine of $100.00 for first time offenses and will be placed on the account of the registrant issued the parking pass. Any misconduct will be reported.

Citations can be issued 24 hours a day, every day without respect for time.

The original registrant may obtain a replacement decal for $10 upon presenting the original decal (or remains thereof, where possible) along with the new vehicle registration to the University Police and Safety. Permits can be transferred to the new vehicle upon registration.
