Vehicle Registration

All vehicles owned by faculty, staff and students that are parked on the EMU campus need to be registered within one week of being brought to campus. This also applies to individuals living in EMU-owned housing or apartments.

There is NO fee for the permits. Parking permits are issued to the individual for a registered primary vehicle. The permit may be moved (used) when a temporaty or secondary vehicle is driven to campus. 

Students involved in the Degree Completion Studies or in graduate programs that meet in the evening also need to obtain a permit at the beginning of each academic school year at no charge. 

To register a vehicle you are required to:

  • Hold a current vehicle registration card as evidence of ownership and the right to register the vehicle
  • Hang the registration permit on the rear view mirror

How to Register a Vehicle

Vehicle registration is completed online through my.emu.edu. Once logged in, the registration process can be found under the Accounts tab for students and the Employee Info tab for faculty and staff. After completing the registration, permits will be delivered through campus mail, USPS, or may be picked up in Campus Safety office (CC123) by appointment.

Graduate Assistants are considered students and need to register as students; not faculty/staff.

Retired employees of EMU who routinely use the premises must register their vehicle to receive a permit but will not be charged a permit fee.

Campus visitors who are on campus for something other than an organized sporting event or a major activity are asked to register their vehicles and utilize a temporary permit available at the Campus Safety (CC123) or Security (CC100) offices. Deaprtments may also issue temporary permits.

Temporary Handicapped Parking Permits

Temporary handicapped parking permits may be issued to students from the Health Center or athletic trainer that confirms a student’s warranted need for a handicapped space. These permits are to be used only on EMU property and are not acceptable under state law to be used off campus. They are available from the Facilities Management office during regular business hours.
