LEXINGTON, Ky. — Student residential parking permits are now on sale for returning University of Kentucky students with confirmed on-campus housing assignments for the 2026-27 academic year, according to an announcement from UK Transportation Services.

The priority presale window runs through 5 p.m. on July 17 and is available on a first-come, first-served basis for students who held residential housing assignments during the previous academic year. After that date, permits will go on sale to the broader residential student population beginning July 21.

Most residential permits cost $504 for the eight-month academic year, the same rate as the previous year. A limited number of Shively Lot permits are available for $336. Students can purchase permits online through their customer accounts, in person at the Transportation Services office at 721 Press Ave., or by phone at 859-257-5757.

The university noted that students should have their vehicle’s make, model, color, state and license plate number available before purchasing. Any outstanding parking citations must also be paid before a permit purchase can be processed.

More affordable alternatives are available for students seeking lower-cost options. Residential periphery parking at Kroger Field costs $136 per semester or $272 for the full academic year. Remote parking permits are available for $168 annually.

Permits become valid beginning Aug. 22 and must be displayed when vehicles arrive on campus. UK Transportation Services encourages students to consider sustainable transportation options, including biking, walking, campus bus routes and ride-hailing services as alternatives to vehicle ownership.

Housing assignments must be finalized before residential permit options appear in customer accounts. Returning residential students do not need to log in early; there is no priority advantage to purchasing on the first day of the sale.
