Parking Permits

• Parking permits for non-Mason affiliated members will be sold directly through Mason Parking Services utilizing their online portal. Non-Mason affiliated members will receive login credentials by email for this portal 2-3 business days after their membership purchase. Through the portal non-Mason affiliated members can purchase a $15 printable parking permit which is valid for the duration of the current membership term.
• Mason students and faculty/staff must purchase parking permits through their normal University eligibility.

Payroll Deduction

• Payroll deduction memberships run continuously until cancelled by the account holder. The per paycheck deduction is calculated as the annual membership price/number of annual paychecks [e.g. $12.50/paycheck for employees paid semi-monthly ($300/24)]. Cancellations made within the first year of membership are subject to a $25 administrative fee (per membership). Cancellations made after the first year of membership are not subject to the fee. Enrollment for payroll deduction memberships is done directly through Mason Recreation Membership Services at masonrec@gmu.edu.
