Parking Services


Concordia students, faculty, staff and guests may park in designated campus parking lots with the appropriate parking permits. These permits, which hang from your rearview mirror, are issued at no cost and are available at the Facilities Management office. The parking policies of Concordia College are reviewed annually and revised as necessary. Compliance with these regulations is necessary in order to promote orderly parking. All motor vehicle operators (car, van, motorcycle, motorbike, etc.) are expected to be familiar with and obey these parking and traffic policies.

If you believe that the ticket you received was given to you in error, please fill out the parking ticket appeal form. Remember that being parked in an area for a short time does not absolve you and almost never are fire lane tickets excusable.
