[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]

  • All students, whether on- or off-campus, must register vehicles with Campus Security at the beginning of each semester.
  • Any vehicle brought to campus at any other time during the semester must also be registered with Campus Security.
    • There are no additional charges for registering a new vehicle once you have paid the initial semester Vehicle Registration fee.
  • A student may park only one registered vehicle on campus at any time.
  • Bringing a trailer, boat, or recreational vehicle of any kind to campus is discouraged and may only be done by obtaining permission from the Student Life Office prior to bringing it to campus.
    • A trailer may be kept on campus only by permission and only on a space-available basis.
    • The trailer must be registered with Campus Security and must be parked where assigned. A parking fee will be assessed.
Parking Registration: Hangtags are to be hung from your rearview mirror. You can obtain a rubber band if needed from the Student Life Office.
  • Vehicles are issued one Registration Hangtag that lasts the entire time of the student’s residence at the University.
  • If you move off-campus/on-campus please contact the Student Life Office to obtain the proper registration (no charge).
  • There are no additional fees for registering more than one vehicle. You will receive one hangtag per person though.
  • If you lose your registration hangtag please see the Student Life Office. There is a $5 fee for replacing a lost hangtag.
Motorcycles do not pay the Vehicle Registration fee and may be brought to campus in addition to another vehicle without any additional registration fees.
  • Campus Security encourages students that bring their motorcycles to campus to notify Security in case the motorcycle is involved in an accident on campus.

Off-Campus and Married Students

Off-Campus and married students must register vehicles with Campus Security at the beginning of each semester.
  • You will only need to pay the registration fee and receive a sticker if you desire to park on campus.

Non-Owner Operation of Vehicles

  • Students who loan vehicles to others do so at their own risk.
  • The registered operator of a vehicle is responsible for any campus citations incurred while his or her vehicle is operated by another student.
  • The use of a vehicle without the owner’s explicit permission is a serious infraction.

Insurance

  • A student who brings a vehicle to campus must have liability insurance coverage. A minimum coverage of:
    • $10,000 – for property damage
    • $25,000 – for injury/death of one person
    • $50,000 – for injury/death of more than one person
  • A student may not transport passengers or allow anyone else to operate the vehicle without this coverage.
  • Drivers and owners of vehicles are required to show proof of insurance to Wisconsin law enforcement when requested.
