If you haven’t had a car registered this year, and have brought one back after spring break, you will need to register it in the security office.
Please bring your DMV registration slip to the security office, and we will register it there. The cost is only $15 for the last month of school, but this discounted price can ONLY be done by security personnel in the office during office hours. Just a reminder that ALL vehicles driven to campus need to have a permit on them.
Students who already have a car registered, but have brought back a different car for the last month, will need to come to the security office for a temporary permit during office hours.
