Student/ Employee Registration Procedures
Everyone parking on the EKU campus must have a parking permit. Parking permits cost $165 (or $105 with an EKU license plate) and are valid for the Academic Year. The fee is charged to your student account. You may register up to five (5) vehicles but are only allowed to have ONE (1) vehicle on campus at a time. If you have a motorcycle and a vehicle you will need to buy an additional parking permit if you choose to park both vehicles on campus at the same time.
