Parking Services

Under Colorado State statute, our university's parking program must be self-sustaining. Parking Lot Operations does not receive funding from taxes or tuition. Instead, all parking-related expenses are covered by revenue from permit sales and citation fees. These funds support a range of costs, including new construction, maintenance of parking lots, roads, signage, enforcement, and overall parking operations.

Parking on campus is monitored through a virtual permit system that scans your license plate. All vehicles parked on campus must have a valid CSU Pueblo parking permit. 

All visitors to campus must obtain a parking permit Monday - Friday 8:00 am - 5:00 pm. Permits are available in the Parking Office located in the Administration building, room 118 from 8:00 am - 5:00 pm. 

STUDENTS AND VISITORS MUST PARK IN WHITE LINED PARKING SPACES

**If you are an invited guest to campus, please ensure your University Contact obtains a parking permit prior to your arrival. This can be done by supplying your University Contact with your name, contact number, vehicle license plate number, and vehicle information.
