Parking

All students, staff and faculty who park a vehicle on Gonzaga University property must register their vehicle with Campus Security and Public Safety. This applies to all vehicles on campus, including motorcycles. Parking lots are designated and posted by permit color and are restricted to certain groups (faculty and staff, law students, residence halls, rental units, etc.).

Permits for the 2026-2027 school year go on sale online August 1st.

Beginning August 1st parking permits may be purchased online. In order to purchase a permit, you will need your vehicle license plate and Gonzaga ID number. If you do not know your ID number, please reference your Zag Card. Permits can be picked up at the Hemmingson Center Welcome Desk or delivered via intercampus mail.  Intercampus mail deliveries will default to your campus address on file (MSC or AD). Permits will NOT be delivered off campus. Allow two days for processing.

The Welcome Desk is staffed during all Hemmingson Center hours of operation (generally 7a-7p during summer and 7a-10p during the academic year).

Parking permits will be required and enforced to beginning Tuesday, Sept 8th.

Visitors to Campus

Visitors must obtain a visitor pass from the Admissions Visit Office, Law library circulation desk, visiting the Parking Office at 702 E Desmet or by calling (509) 313-6880, or by prior arrangement online. There are Visitor stalls at various locations on campus. If you are a visitor and have received a citation for “No Current Permit” you may have that citation waived. Current Students, Staff and Faculty are not considered Visitors.

Parking Rules and Regulations

A copy of the parking rules and regulations is available from the Parking office, or available online.

Citations

If you received a citation at Gonzaga University and are not a visitor, you can pay your fine or appeal your citation. As an incentive to pay fines promptly, citations paid within 7 days of issuance will be reduced to half the price. Please visit our online portal to pay or appeal your citation, or visit the Parking Office at 702 E Desmet to pay in person. Gonzaga students’ citations that remain unpaid for 60 days may result in a hold on your Student Account.

Hours of Enforcement

University parking rules and regulations are enforced every day year-round unless otherwise specified. A heavier emphasis on parking patrol will occur during regular business hours throughout the academic year. Anyone with a valid permit, regardless of color, may park in any non-residential lot after 5:00 pm until the following 8:00am Monday through Friday, on weekends, and on University holidays and breaks. Parking in fire lanes, reserved stalls, disabled person stalls, sidewalks, brick, lawn, construction and maintenance areas is prohibited and enforced every day year-round.

Call the Parking Office at ext. 6880 or (509) 313-6880 for more information.
