  Registration and Fees


All vehicles parked on University property must be registered and display a valid Rutgers permit. Vehicle registration is a personal obligation and non-receipt of registration materials does not excuse failure to register. Register vehicles for your use only. To register a vehicle for another person’s use through false information constitutes fraud. Parking permits are intended for use by the registrant only and possession of another person’s permit does not grant you their privileges. Use of counterfeit, stolen or altered permits is illegal. Violators are subject to towing, fines, revocation of privileges, and judicial action.

Faculty/Staff
Vehicle registration is conducted during November when registration requests are sent to department heads. Departments are granted a specific allocation of available faculty/staff space annually. The names of eligible employees are furnished to the Office of Parking and Commuter Services and registration forms are forwarded in turn. Permits may be procured by mail or in person. An optional six-payment payroll deduction plan is available. Employees not granted a departmental allocation are permitted to purchase a permit for a prescribed hourly rate facility. Faculty or staff members with unpaid citations at the beginning of each permit year will be refused vehicle registration privileges until all citations are satisfied.

Faculty and Staff Fees
Faculty, Staff and Teaching Assistant permit fees are based on salary; the minimum fee is .001 x the annual salary. Coadjutants and other Rutgers employee job types pay $36 annually. Part time lecturers (Type 7) with union status, job class code 99902, pay $18 annually. Non-union part-time lecturers, job class code 99905, pay $36.


A $5 fee is charged for each additional vehicle that is registered.
Temporary (Type 4) employees are not eligible for payroll deductions. Work-study (Type 5) are not eligible for Faculty/Staff parking but may purchase parking as students.

LOANER, RENTAL, DISABLED VEHICLE POLICY
A temporary hangtag can be issued to a student, faculty, and staff to use with a loaner vehicle in the event that a vehicle (pre-registered with Rutgers Parking) is either stolen or in a garage for repair. Verification of the incident must be provided to the Parking Office. (i.e. body shop work order, police report, or mechanic shop work order). The temporary hangtag will be issued for a time period no greater than two weeks. The temporary hangtag will replace both the original hangtag and the sticker during the temporary time period. Please Note: If your loaner or rental is not registered a citation will be issued. Please bring the loaner or rental registration or agreement to the Parking Office located in Blumenthal Hall Room 209 to obtain the temporary permit.

Newly Hired Employees should inquire with department chair or designate regarding availability of allocated spaces. Space permitting, new employees may apply for parking with written requests from the employing department to the Office of Parking and Commuter Services.

ID Cards
When assigned to a gated faculty/staff lot, your ID will be activated (hangtag and sticker) with the initial permit purchase. A $20 fee is charged for a replacement ID card. ID cards are the property of Rutgers University and must be returned to the Office of Parking and Transportation Services located at 200 University Ave upon request or upon an employee’s termination/resignation.
New Brunswick employees needing to park at Newark Campus must have valid Rutgers University permit (hangtag and sticker) and notify Parking and Commuter services to have IDs activated for access to lots.

You may register as many additional vehicles as you need (at an additional charge) and you will be given a sticker for each vehicle, but only one hangtag. You may not have multiple vehicles on campus at the same time. The hangtag must be transferred to the vehicle in use. A permit is valid only if the hangtag and the window sticker are displayed simultaneously.
