Parking and Transportation
Safe parking, secure future
Parking helps pay for school safety measures. Secure your parking for the year now to avoid stress later, or use the convenient Park Mobil app to pay as you go. With an annual ePermit, pay-by-hour ParkMobile, charging stations, two garages, and plenty of lots and on-street parking available, SHSU has all your parking needs covered. Handicap, motorcycle, and EV parking options are strategically located throughout campus to ensure the parking needs of our entire SHSU community are met.

HANDICAP / DISABLED VETERANS
Our office takes the extra step to verify ADA credentials to preserve the integrity of ADA spaces on campus. Before utilizing a handicap space, you must provide proof of eligibility. Only the person in which the ADA placard, ADA license plate, or DV plate is registered to can utilize a disabled space on campus. Find answers to other questions below.
Disabled Veteran license plates feature "DV" as part of the license plate number. DV-designated plates provide the same parking rights and privileges as a plate with the International Symbol of Access. Disabled Veterans do not have to pay to park in surface lots. Only the Disabled Veteran can utilize these parking rights.
The placard or ADA license plate, and the State ID Card or Driver's License of the requestor must be submitted via e-mail or in person to our office for approval. For Disabled Veterans, proof of eligibility may be provided with signed approval by the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs on Form VTR-615, or a letter from Veterans Affairs stating eligibility. If you choose to email, be sure to password protect your file and call us with the password.
Once you've provided proof of eligibility, you may purchase an ADA annual epermit or pay by hour with the ParkMobile app to park in any handicap space.
Special ePermits are available to students who must park close due to a temporary injury or illness. Temporary special permits are not authorized to park in any area designated disabled spaces, but are allowed to park in Zone 1 for the a specified time period. Call our office for more details.
