decal prices and eligibility requirements >>

All individuals who wish to park a motor vehicle on campus during restricted hours must display a valid parking decal or permit or park in a metered space and pay the appropriate fee.  Restricted hours are 7:30 am to 4:30 pm, unless otherwise indicated. 

A UF parking decal will enable the holder to park a motor vehicle in the parking facilities that specific decal is designated for. The purchase of a parking decal does not guarantee a parking space.

Decal eligibility requirements differ for faculty/staff members and for students. Faculty/staff decal eligibility is based on whether or not the faculty/staff member is Benefits Eligible. Student decal eligibility is based on whether the student lives on or off campus and the number of credit hours earned.
