Stark Campus Parking Services

PARKING IS FREE AT KENT STATE STARK

While parking is free at the Stark Campus, vehicle registration and parking hang tags are required.

PARKING HANG TAGS FOR FALL & SPRING

All Kent State Stark students are required to register their vehicle(s) before a parking hang tag can be issued. 

Vehicle registration ensures that Campus Security can better regulate student and faculty/staff parking, can contact students in case of a problem with their vehicle (lights left on, damage to vehicle, etc.) or offer vehicle lockout assistance.

• You must be registered for classes before a parking hang tag can be issued.
• Parking hang tags are required in all designated student lots.

Parking hang tags issued during fall semester are also good for spring semester.
