MCV Campus Sale

VCU Parking and Transportation collaborated with the MCV Campus Assistant and Associate Dean’s Council to improve the MCV Campus student parking sale experience. As a result, the sale process resembles a lottery system for the fall/spring semesters and applies to commuter parking permits only.

Please note the schedule for upcoming MCV Campus permit sales:

  • Fall 2025 MCV Campus commuter permits lottery signup: July 14-July 17. 
  • Fall 2025 MCV Campus lottery sale: July 22-July 25. 

All permits are virtual and linked directly to your license plate(s). That means no hangtag will be mailed. If you need help linking your permit, please review the instructions at go.vcu.edu/lpr.


Instructions for participating in the lottery:

  1. Beginning at 9 a.m. on Monday, July 14, all students interested in purchasing an MCV Campus commuter permit should log in to apps.parking.vcu.edu/mcvwebsales and select their parking preferences. The lottery will close at 4 p.m. on Thursday, July 17.
  2. The system will assign a number to all applicants. If your number is selected via a random generator, you will receive an email notification on Monday, July 21 with your award and a link to purchase your permit online on Tuesday, July 22 at 9 a.m.
  3. Recipients have until Friday, July 25, at 4 p.m. to accept and purchase the awarded permit before it is forfeited.
