Buy Annual Student Parking Permits Online

Dear UC San Diego Student,

Welcome to Fall Quarter 2010 at UC San Diego!

We strongly encourage students to consider using alternative transportation instead of bringing a car to campus. Commute Solutions offers several programs including, carpools, Transit/Coaster Club, Pedal Club for bicyclists, shuttles and the UCSD Bus Zone. Visit iride.ucsd.edu for details.

If you plan to buy an annual parking permit, you can order S (undergraduate), M (motorcycle) or B (graduate student) permits through TritonLink
(https://www-act.ucsd.edu/studentBuyParking/parking) and get two weeks of free parking. Forget waiting in long lines; you’ll receive your permit within days via first-class mail. Annual permits are valid Oct. 1, 2010, through June 30, 2011.

When you buy your permit online, it will be mailed to you after September 13, 2010. You can begin using it immediately, but your student account won’t be billed until Oct. 1. (Note: This offer only applies to permits purchased online.)

Whether you want to pay for the full year upfront or set up interest-free monthly billing, all payments are charged to your student account.

*Student S permit:* $549 single payment; $61 monthly billing

*Motorcycle M permit:* $198 single payment; $22 monthly billing

*Grad student B permit:* $729 single payment; $81 monthly billing

When you’re ready to get started, please visit “Buy a permit Online” (https://www-act.ucsd.edu/studentBuyParking/parking).
