General Department Resources & Information

A campus ID card not only serves to identify you, but can be used to obtain discounts and access to events and services - even the building after hours and weekends.  To obtain yours, please contact the Business Office so they can confirm your employee ID and provide you an account number to charge the cost of the ID. Once you have that information, you can proceed with completing the campus ID Card Request Form.  

A description of benefits and overview of the process can be found at https://blink.ucsd.edu/HR/services/new/cards/.

• 30 minutes free parking for drop off (use app!)

4. Select any vehicle on your account. Your permit will be valid with all vehicles tied to your ParkMobile account.
5. Select your payment method and complete your transaction. Your parking zone and promotion code will appear on the receipt that display's at the end of your transaction. A link to your receipt will also be sent via email. **CLICK AND VIEW THE RECEIPT PDF FOR THE PROMOTION CODE**

1. In the settings menu of the ParkMobile app, select Promotion Codes.
