Disability Placards

 

The University requires all students, faculty, and staff with a state-issued disability permit to also obtain a regular Tennessee State University parking permit. In addition, the state-issued permit must be visibly displayed on the rearview mirror, or a state-issued disability license plate must be used.

 

Parking is now more convenient with hourly paid options available in designated lots across campus. Simply look for the signs posted around campus with the QR code below. 

Visitors may park for $1 per hour or $5 per day, Monday–Friday, from 6 a.m. to 6 p.m
