Parking Permits
Display Regulations
Permits must be clearly displayed, as instructions indicate, on
cars, trucks and motorcyles. On cars and trucks, the permit
must be displayed on the rear of the vehicle on the driver’s
side, either on the vehicle window or on the rear bumper.
Motorcycle permits must be displayed on the front fork of the
cycle. Permits are designed with an adhesive backing to be
stuck to the outside of the vehicle either on the glass or on the
bumper. When vehicle operators choose another method of
attaching the permit to the vehicle and the permit is not clearly
visible in the required location, the operator may be fined for
improper display of permit
Student Permits
All students (full- and part-time) must display a permit on
vehicles parked on campus unless they use pay parking. Permits
are required during every semester, including the summer, and are
valid for one semester only.
Permits must be properly displayed on any vehicle parked in NOVA
permit parking facilities after 6:00 a.m. on the dates noted below:
Fall semester 2007 — September 4, 2007
Spring semester 2008 — January 28, 2008
Summer semester 2008 — June 2, 2008
Students with permits may park in student “B” lots only. Permits cost
$65 each and may be purchased online at http://parking.nvcc.edu,
or through Parking Services offices. VISA, MasterCard and
American Express credit cards are accepted.
Students in non-credit classes may purchase a temporary parking
permit or use pay parking unless other arrangements have been
made prior to arriving on campus.
There are provisions in Virginia Law, Code of Virginia 23-9.6:1
and 9.6:1 and 23-38:56 whereby certain senior citizens may be
eligible to enroll for courses on a credit or non-credit basis with
a waiver of tuition and fees. Qualified senior citizens may obtain
a student permit at no charge by presenting a signed copy of the
senior citizen registration form at a Parking Services office.
A replacement permit is free of charge if the student provides
personal identification and pieces of the original permit, or can
provide documentation from an insurance company or auto repair
shop verifying the loss of the permit due to damage. Stolen permits
will be replaced free of charge upon presentation of an official
police report. Without a report, replacement permits cost $65.
Emergency Permits
Faculty, staff and students who have been issued a current
permit but due to an emergency are unable to use the vehicle
with the permit may obtain a temporary parking pass from
a Parking Services office. Use of these passes is limited to a
range of several days up to two weeks and documentation
may be required. Requests for temporary passes are limited to
two per semester. Valid personal identification is required to
obtain a temporary pass. Go to http://parking.nvcc.edu.
Faculty and Staff Permits
Full-time employees (faculty, adjunct faculty and classified
staff) may register a maximum of two vehicles online. Permits
will be mailed to the applicant’s home address. Express
mailing is available, however, there is an additional charge
for this service. Temporary parking passes can be printed out
when permits are ordered online. Go to
http://parking.nvcc.edu.
Faculty/Staff permits will not be issued in Parking Services
offices until the first day of classes for each semester.
Applications will no longer be processed through individual
departments.
All full-time and adjunct faculty, classified staff, and P-1
staff working standard 20 hour work weeks who are not
work-study or student hire employees are eligible for two
free permits. Additional permits cost $65 unless the pieces
of one of the currently issued permits is returned to a Parking
Services office at the time of the request. These additional
permits cannot be obtained via the Web site.
Employees must display their permits appropriately and
comply with parking regulations or be subject to a fine.
See page 6 for placement information.
Employees are responsible for providing and maintaining
correct information on their parking record. All changes,
including license tag numbers, must be immediately reported
to a Parking Services office. Employees must remove and
return their permits to a Parking Services office when
terminating employment. Employees may not obtain new
or replacement permits without having paid for all parking
citations on their records.
Guest and Visitor Passes
College officials may request temporary parking passes for
parking lots or validations for parking garages for guests and
visitors. These passes and validations allow parking in NOVA
lots or garages at the times indicated. They are not valid for
use at meters. Visitors without parking passes or validations
must use meters or pay for parking in the parking garages.
The failure to pay is likely to result in a citation.
Handicapped Permits
NOVA does not issue handicapped permits. Handicapped permits
issued by the Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) in any state or
the District of Columbia will be honored on campuses. It is not necessary to purchase a NOVA permit if a valid DMV handicapped
permit is displayed while parking in a NOVA handicapped space.
Handicapped permits must be valid, displayed properly and used
only by the persons to whom they were issued. It is a violation of
Virginia Law and NOVA rules to misuse a handicapped permit.
Motorcycle Permits
Motorcycle permits are valid for use in surface parking lots only.
Motorcycles must be parked in designated areas. Motorcycles are
not permitted in NOVA parking garages.
