Parking is not allowed in areas restricted by signs such as visitor spaces, service vehicle areas, carpool spaces, admissions areas, the right side of the Squires Lot, etc. 

Permits can be purchased in person at Transportation Services, 505 Beamer Way or online.

Faculty/Staff Remote 

Full-time and part-time salaried employees and non-student wage employees  are eligible to purchase a  F/S Remote parking permit.

These employees have the option to purchase a discounted parking permit for $30 (a savings of $330 of the regular price of $360). The permit allows employees to park in the Chicken Hill Lot and ride a shuttle bus to and from the core of campus on weekdays, including during breaks.

Permits can be purchased in person at Transportation Services, 505 Beamer Way, or online.

30 Year Employees 

Employees with 30 years of service become eligible for a free F/S permit in their anniversary month. For more information, contact the Department of Human Resources at 540–231–9331.  

New Employee Permit 

First time new employees and employees with a significant break in service are eligible for a new employee permit, valid the first 30 days of employment. Please connect with your hiring manager for more details.

AA Permit

Vice presidents, deans, and equivalents are eligible to purchase an All Access (AA) permit. The university recognizes through the AA permit that these senior administrators require frequent travel campus-wide for attendance at meetings events, and site visits. The AA permit is double the annual F/S permit rate.  For information on the AA permit, please contact Parking Services at parking@vt.edu or 540–231–3200.

Northern Virginia Employees 

Faculty, staff, and students working on the Virginia Tech campus in Northern Virginia are also required to register their vehicles by purchasing a Virginia Tech parking permit. Registration forms are available through the Northern Virginia Center (NVC) coordinator. In addition, a proximity card issued by NVC Facilities is necessary to enter and exit the parking lot. NVC will issue a proximity card to new permit holders. Existing proximity cards can be renewed by contacting NVC Facilities after purchasing a parking permit by email or by calling 703-538-8440. 

If F/S changes to student status before the expiration date on the permit, the F/S permit must be exchanged for a student permit within five (5) working days. Failure to do so will result in a $175 unauthorized use fine.
