Parking on the College campus is at the vehicle operator's risk. The registered driver is responsible for the use of the vehicle on campus. The College is not responsible for loss or damage to any registered or other vehicles, their contents, or equipment. The payment of parking fees provides only for the privilege of parking on campus, on a space-available basis.
Parking privileges are only granted once the required documentation is validated by the Public Safety Office. Upon validation only will the parking permit be issued to the vehicle/permit holder. Parking Permits must be displayed within the Permit Holder's Vehicle with the College Logo and ID Number facing outwards, ideally from the rearview mirror, or some other suitable, secure location in the vehicle. If there is no suitable, stable, or secure front-facing surface in the holder's vehicle to display the pass, it's recommended that you store the permit securely in the glove box, console, etc, before placing the vehicle in motion. Lost or stolen parking permits must be reported to the New York City Police department.
Parking permits are Not Refundable or Replaceable. If a permit is lost or stolen, a new permit must be purchased at full price.
Faculty, Staff, and Students are prohibited from parking private vehicles in areas designated and marked for "CUNY Authorized Vehicles Only."
