Parking Information for Non-Mason Affiliates

• New Members and Renewals: Parking passes for new memberships will be sold directly through the Office of Parking and Transportation utilizing their online portal. Non-Mason members will receive login credentials for this portal prior 2-3 business days after their membership purchase and be able to purchase a printable parking pass. The printable parking pass will cover the rest of their current membership term. Click here for instructions on how to use their online portal.
