Vehicle Registration

All vehicles parked at The Claremont Colleges must display a valid parking permit or an authorized guest parking permit. Please note: Creating a vehicle registration account alone does not register a vehicle. A vehicle is only considered registered once a parking permit has been issued by Campus Safety. Campus Safety will begin issuing citations for failure to register starting Monday, September 16.

  • CMC, HMC, POM, SCR: First-year students must obtain authorization from their Dean of Students Office to register a vehicle.
  • PTZ: All students, regardless of class level, must have an approval letter on file to register a vehicle.
  • All Proctors, RAs, and student workers receive student permits without exceptions.

Renewals – No Changes to the Vehicle

Present your Claremont ID card. If your permit has a validation sticker ending with the year 2024 or earlier, it needs to be renewed. Faculty/staff may register up to 10 vehicles by providing DMV registration with their name and/or address.

Present your Claremont ID card, driver’s license, and DMV registration. Parking permits must be renewed every academic year. Students may only register one vehicle per academic year.

Temporary Permits

ID numbers issued to temporary employees are not valid for vehicle registration. Temporary parking permits can be obtained from designated locations.

Temporary parking permits can be obtained at the Campus Safety Office for loaner/rental vehicles, provided your regular vehicle is currently registered and unavailable for a short period.

Additional Permits & Services

A replacement permit carries a $25 cash-only fee, payable when it is issued. The fee is waived if the current permit is turned in, even if it is damaged or in pieces.

Students may obtain only one parking permit for their home campus. If they live on or work at another campus, they must submit an inter-campus form and have it approved by the Deans of both campuses. Once approved, a temporary parking permit for the “visiting” campus can be obtained from Campus Safety.

Free bicycle registration is available through 529 Garage. The bicycle’s
serial number is required for registration.
