The University grants permits and makes parking lot assignments based upon a salary classification system. The univerity's parking fees cover only 40% of the cost to provide it. Why does parking cost so much? Click here to find out.
Hours
On workdays, the lots are reserved for permittees from 7:30 AM to 4:00 PM. During non-working hours, most lots are open to all vehicles from 4:00 PM to 7:30 AM weekdays, and all day and night over the weekend. Exceptions to this policy are noted on lot signs.
Permits
To obtain permits and/or passes for parking at the University, application must be made to the Parking Office in person or by mail/fax. The application form is online here. The Yale Parking office is located at 221 Whitney Avenue and is open between the hours of 8:00 AM and 3:45 PM, Monday through Friday.
Occasional Parking
Unless you know that you will park your car on campus every day, you might get more value from purchasing daily debit parking permits.
To Purchase Debit Parking Permits for $8 per day:
- Call the Parking Office at 203-432-9790 and ask to purchase debit parking.
- Staff will help you determine which available lot is most convenient for you. If you are giving up a monthly permit and have a lot assignment that you would like to keep, that can be accomodated in most cases.
- Use a credit card number to purchase the number of days you need.
- Total number of days will be loaded onto your Yale ID card. Swipe the card at parking lot access pads for entry.
- To refill your card, simply call again
Daily parking gives you the flexibility to make more choices about how you commute to campus each day.
