Parking permits are required to park on campus. North Seattle College encourages employees who must drive to park on campus and not in the surrounding neighborhood.  Employees can purchase quarterly parking permits online here.

Annual permit

• Permits run from July 1 through June 30.
• Available to permanent employees working 50 percent or more.
• Permanent employees will be automatically enrolled in in the District Transportation Management Plan (TMP) when they complete the payroll deduction form.
• Pre–tax deduction option is available.
• Include your vehicle information and submit the online form. Parking permits are virtual and are available for immediate use upon approval of the Transportation Coordinator.
• Unless the deduction option is cancelled, the permit will automatically be renewed in July.
• To change or cancel payroll deduction, please complete the same form (as above), noting the change or cancellation as appropriate. Staff who temporarily stop working but receive paychecks should cancel the payroll deductions.
