First-Year Resident Parking Information

Due to limited parking availability, as well as to support UCR’s sustainability efforts, first-year residents are not allowed to bring a vehicle to campus.  We understand that due to certain situations, some first-year students may need a vehicle.  A First Year Resident Exemption Request form will be available online around August.  Exemptions are allowed only for compelling reasons such as for health and safety issues or for an off-campus job. Those requests not immediately approved will be placed on a wait-list.
