Current Parking Impacts
Shuttle service will resume on Thursday, January 22, 2026 (the first day of instruction
for 2026 Spring Semester).
Parking in main campus parking garages can be difficult and will add delays to your
day between 8 a.m. to 2 p.m. Parking Services encourages parking at the South Campus
Parking Garage and taking the free and frequent shuttle to Main Campus.  Another option
for students and employees is to use a VTA EcoPass loaded onto a Clipper Card for
public transportation throughout Santa Clara County. Find out more at
go.sjsu.edu/transportation
As a reminder, there is no grace period for parking. All users of any university parking
garage must immediately have a valid parking permit or use the Parkmobile app to pay.

Parking citation fees
are being adjusted to better support parking operations and your parking experience.
Fees were adjusted starting August 1, 2025.  These changes reflect increased costs
associated with enforcement operations, state-mandated operations, state-mandated
surcharges, and continued support in campus transportation services.  We appreciate
your cooperation as we continue improving campus mobility and safety.
