Student Carpooling

Students who wish to find a carpool partner and ride together with at least one other student are eligible for a carpool permit. All registered carpool participants must show proof of vehicle registration. To apply, submit your electronic application by clicking the "Carpool Application" link in the top right corner of this webpage. After receiving your application, NCSU Transportation staff will be in touch to arrange a time for you to pick up your permit.

Carpool Permits are valid in decks across all three campuses (Main, Centennial, and Centennial Biomedical). Individual permits can be traded for carpool permits at any point in the academic year.

Student Carpool Policies:

  • A minimum of two (2) students must make up a Student Carpool. Students can apply online (see bulleted option in the top right corner), however both students must come to the Transportation Office together to complete the necessary paperwork and exchange any individual permits for a joint CP permit (if applicable).
  • Permit allows parking in the Coliseum (CD), Dan Allen (DD), West Lot (W) Partners Way, MRC, Toxicology and CBC Decks (CC). There are no designated carpool parking spaces in these facilities.
  • Each carpool is issued 4 daily (scratch-off) permits per rider for the academic year (Aug. - Aug.). After the drop/add date, daily permits are prorated monthly. Daily permits are not to be sold, traded, gifted or otherwise offered to an unauthorized user.
  • Each student carpool will need a primary and secondary permit holder. The primary holder is Transportation's point of contact and is the student responsible for ANY fines or citations issued.
  • Permit cost is the cost of a parking deck permit and prorated at the same rate.
  • If the carpool doesn't work out during Fall or Spring semesters, the carpool permit must be returned to Transportation by April 29, 2011 and members will receive a prorated refund, and can purchase the same permit they had prior to forming the carpool.

Transportation reserves the right to cancel the
program at the end of any academic year.
