Permits for Students with Disabilities
Summary: Parking permits for disabled students are available through the Office for Students with Disabilities.

Students with a DMV disabled person's parking placard or license plate must also obtain a UCLA-issued parking permit. Permits are available to qualified students with verified permanent and temporary mobility-related disabilities and are available through the Office for Students with Disabilities (OSD). Please contact the OSD Mobility Assistance Coordinator to arrange for this service.

  • Students without a DMV placard or license plate may also be eligible for a disability permit. Be sure to discuss your situation with the OSD.
  • Students with a DMV placard or license plate must present a state-issued receipt to the OSD.
