Frequently Asked Questions

What if I drive more than one car to school?

All vehicles are required to have a parking permit to park at IVC. A parking permit may be purchased for a vehicle at full price and a second one may be purchased at a discounted price.

There is also the option of purchasing a day pass when bringing the additional vehicle on campus. The cost of the day pass is $2.00 a day and may be purchased either at the day pass machines or at the Parking Control Office.

What if my car is from another state or country?

Even if a vehicle is from out-of-state or from another country, you may purchase a parking permit for the semester. You must follow the same procedures as a vehicle from California. You must just specify what state or country your vehicle is from.

Can I move the sticker/parking permit from one car to another?

The parking permit/sticker must be placed on the vehicle that is registered with the department. Additional permits may be purchased for additional vehicles.

What if I buy a new car or stop driving the registered car to school?

A replacement sticker may be purchased at the Parking Control Office for $1.00. You must register the new vehicle by filling out a vehicle registration form and an affidavit form and returning fragments of the original parking permit/sticker with the forms to the Parking Control Office.

Where does the sticker/parking permit go on my car?

The parking permit/sticker must be placed on the outside lower right hand rear (passenger side) corner of the window. If you drive a convertible or jeep, the sticker may be placed on the front windshield or on the bumper of the vehicle.
