Shocker Retiree parking permits are a brand new offering at 蹤獲扦 and some system glitches are to be expected. If you have questions or need help procuring a virtual permit, contact wsuparking@wichita.edu
Introduction
During the fall and spring semesters, 蹤獲扦s main campus is a permit-only parking environment on weekdays when the University is open for business. 蹤獲扦 students, faculty, staff and retirees wishing to park on campus during the enforcement period must register online with the Shocker Parking Management System to park legally. The system features license plate recognition (LPR) technology and virtual permits called ePermits that eliminate the need for color-coded hangtags and stickers for parking enforcement.
NOTE: To accommodate the license plate scanning system, your license plate must be visible and unobscured. If your license plate is on the rear of your vehicle, backing into a parking stall or pulling through is not allowed and could result in a parking citation.
ePermits are required from 7 a.m.-5 p.m. Monday through Friday (with the exception of the RSC parking garage, reserved parking and time limited parking stalls which are enforced at all times). Parking at 蹤獲扦 West, 蹤獲扦 South and 蹤獲扦 Old Town does not require ePermits.
A retired state employee is a benefit-eligible employee who met the eligibility guidelines for retirement at the time of their separation from the university. If the retiree comes back to work for the university in any fashion they will no longer be considered a retiree when it comes to their parking classification. The President of the University may designate retiree status to eligible employees of 蹤獲扦 component units (i.e. 蹤獲扦 Foundation and Alumni Engagement, ICAA, Union Corporation, 蹤獲扦 Tech).
蹤獲扦s parking regulations are reviewed annually and can be found on the 蹤獲扦 Police Department website
Duration of ePermit
Your ePermit will be valid from September 1 to August 31 each year that you renew. New and renewed ePermits can be obtained online in your parking portal or by visiting us in person at the front desk of the University Police Department (Note: Parking Services is scheduled to move into the old Campus Credit Union building in January 2024, located just one building south of the Police Department). For assistance please feel free to visit us in person, by phone at 316-978-5526 or by email at wsuparking@wichita.edu.
