I already have an ORCA transit pass, can I purchase a parking permit?

If you already have an ORCA transit pass you are not eligible to purchase a long term parking permit [annual, academic year, or carpool]. ORCA Transit Pass holders receive complimentary Orca Flex parking permits for up to 12 days of parking each 90-day period should they need to park on campus. These parking permits are ordered through iParq.  Please contact our office if you want to switch from a transit pass to a parking permit.

If you have used your Orca Flex parking permits for the quarter, Transit Pass holders may purchase additional parking through iParq. This additional parking is the Employee Pay by the Day parking permits.
