Resident Students

Resident Spring 2025 permit applications will be available on 12/09/2024 at noon by logging onto park.luc.edu

General Info

Enrolled Loyola students who are in their second year or above and living in a Loyola residence hall can apply for a resident parking permit. 

Loyola University Chicago is an urban campus with extremely limited parking space. We do not guarantee a parking permit to anyone, at any time. We strongly encourage considering alternative transportation options such as public transit, biking, walking, or ridesharing. 

Resident permits are extremely limited and awarded on a first come, first served basis to those who meet the above eligibility requirements. We strongly encourage you to apply as early as possible in order to increase your chances of getting a permit. Please note that submission of an application does not guarantee you a space. You have not been granted a space unless Campus Transportation sends you an approval email with a specific parking assignment. 

Resident permit holders are assigned to a specific lot on the Lake Shore Campus (please scroll down for a list of resident lots). Resident permits include overnight parking. 

You must be registered for classes in order to apply for a parking permit. Please scroll down for instructions on how to Apply for a Permit. Please be advised, students with two or more outstanding vehicle violations on their account are not eligible for a Loyola parking permit- such applications will be waitlisted until all fines have been paid.

Those who had a Fall 2024 permit do not automatically get a Spring 2025 permit. You must apply. 

All parking permit fees are billed to student's accounts.

Resident Permit Lots

Resident Permit holders will be assigned to one of the following lots. There is no residential parking in the Main Structure or Fordham Garage. There is no residential parking on the Water Tower campus. Although we do our best to place you in the nearest lot available, due to extremely limited space we cannot guarantee that you will be placed in your preferred lot.  Many of these lots are underneath the resident buildings with vehicle access on an alleyway.  These can be tight spaces to manuever and often times trucks or large SUVs do not fit or have difficulty manuevering the lots and spaces. For this reason, we recommend not bringing a truck or large SUV to campus as a residential student. 

  • Bellarmine (under Bellarmine Hall at 6628 N Sheridan Rd)
  • Canisius (under Canisius Hall at 6246 N Kenmore Ave)
  • Fairfield (behind Fairfield Hall at 6228-6240 N Winthrop Ave)
  • LeMoyne (under LeMoyne Hall at 6308 N Winthrop Ave)

  • Messina (behind Messina Hall at 6229 N Winthrop Ave)
  • North End (across from Campion Hall at 6611 N Sheridan Rd)
  • Spring Hill (behind Spring Hill Hall at 6211 N Winthrop Ave) 

Vehicles parked in any of the resident lots above must have a current Loyola Resident Parking Permit for that specific lot. Any vehicle in a resident lot not properly displaying a valid resident permit sticker will be ticketed and towed at the owners expense.
