is designed to hold four years worth of information.

a valid photo ID such as a driver’s license or passport must
be presented to Campus Police. If a student does not have

to the Registrar’s office in the Administration Building (A100)
and complete a name change form. A copy of this form along
with the schedule and photo ID must be presented to Campus
Police to obtain a new card.

PARKING PERMIT
INFORMATION
Every person operating a vehicle on the campus of SE must
obtain and display a current parking permit on their vehicle.
These permits are to be displayed on the rear bumper or on
the back glass of the vehicle. Student permits are good for one
(1) year and expire on the last day of. July To receive a parking
permit, students are required to bring proof of enrollment,
vehicle registration and the vehicle tag number to the Campus
Police Department. There is no charge for these permits. Proof
of enrollment is your schedule for the current semester, bill for
current semester or updated ID card.
You cannot receive a parking permit without your tag number
and proof of enrollment.
If you do not have your tag number at the time you enroll,
(example: you just purchased the vehicle and still have the
temporary tag), you must wait until you have the official metal
tag to receive a decal.
Not receiving a parking permit will not exempt you from
responsibility for traffic or parking violations. Campus Police
can identify the owner by tracing the tag number through the
Department of Public Safety.
