How to Get a Permit
To be eligible to purchase a USF Sarasota-Manatee parking permit:

• Your USF home campus must be listed as Sarasota with the Registrar's Office
   
• You must live within the USF Sarasota-Manatee service area (Sarasota, Manatee, Desoto, Charlotte & Lee counties)
   
• You must be taking at least 50% of your classes at the Sarasota-Manatee Campus

At the Tampa or St. Pete campuses, any USF student may purchase a permit for Tampa or St. Pete without restrictions in regard to home campus, address or where classes are taken.  Those permits are significantly more expensive than Sarasota-Manatee's.
