Parking Permits

Student parking permits will be required to park in student lots for the Spring 2023 semester.

Permits are now available for purchase through the student portal.  Click here to be taken to the student portal sign-in page.

Students who ordered and paid for a Spring 2023 parking permit by 1:00 pm on January 13, 2023, will have their permit mailed to them. You can order a Spring permit once you have enrolled in Spring classes and your fees are paid.  Make sure your mailing address is up-to-date in the portal as this is the address the permit will be mailed to.

If you ordered a Spring 2023 parking permit after 1:00 pm on January 13, 2023 or did not receive it before the first day of class, pick it up in person at College Police with a valid photo ID.  City's College Police is located in Room V-100, on the corner of 16th & Broadway.

Parking permits can also be purchased in-person at the Student Accounting Office.

Paying For Your Classes

You can pay for your classes, the Health fee, and the Rep fee at the Student Accounting Office.  In person, we accept cash, checks, credit cards (Visa or Mastercard only), money orders, and cashier's checks.  

Or, you can avoid the lines and pay online through the student portal.  Visa or Mastercard are accepted for online payments.  Click here to be taken to the student portal sign-in page.
