Vehicle Registration Form

Vehicle Registration Application

Welcome to the Gordon College Online Vehicle Registration System! By submitting the form below, you are registering your vehicle for the 2022-23 school year.

It is very important that your PLATE, GORDON USERNAME (first.last), and GORDON ID# are entered accurately.

Once your registration application is submitted, you are free to park on campus, but you must park only in lots/areas authorized for your registration status (see below for a complete explanation). Your parking sticker will be delivered to your campus mailbox, typically within one week (or one week from the start of classes if you are registering prior to the start of the semester).

2022-23 VEHICLE REGISTRATION FEES :
The annual vehicle registration fee for undergraduate students is $270. After you submit this form, the fee will be applied to your student account, and you may pay it using the normal methods available for paying college charges and fees. The fee for graduate students is included already as part of your course fees, and there is no charge for faculty and staff members who are not also undergraduate students. NOTE: If you are registering a car after January 1 (and you did not have it on campus during the fall semester), you will only be charged for the spring semester ($135.00).

WHERE YOU MAY PARK:
During the summer, you may park in any space not specifically marked as reserved (e.g. handicap spaces, etc). However, please note the following: 1. NO OVERNIGHT PARKING: Please note that several lots are marked on their entrance sign as "NO OVERNIGHT PARKING." These lots are closed from 2:00am to 6:00am daily, all year.
2. LEAVING YOUR CAR WHILE AWAY FROM CAMPUS: : If you will be away from campus for 24 hours or more while leaving your car here, your car MUST BE PARKED IN THE WOODLAND LOT. .

A detailed description of parking regulations and restrictions is available on the GO site here:

"IT IS UNLAWFUL FOR A NONRESIDENT STUDENT TO FAIL TO FILE A NONRESIDENT DRIVER STATEMENT WITH THE POLICE DEPARTMENT LOCATED IN THE SAME CITY OR TOWN AS THE SCHOOL OR COLLEGE ATTENDED, IN ACCORDANCE WITH SECTION 3 OF CHAPTER 90 OF THE MASSACHUSETTS GENERAL LAWS. FAILURE TO FILE SUCH STATEMENT IS PUNISHABLE BY A FINE NOT TO EXCEED $200.”

PLEASE NOTE:
Nonresident students will receive a follow-up email from Gordon Police with instructions about how to file the Nonresident Driver Statement. Please keep an eye out for it and reply at your earliest convenience. Thank you.

	STAFF: I am not a student, so this warning does not apply to me.
	MA DRIVER: I have a MA driver's license, so this warning does not apply to me.

17. Woodland-Only Option (Juniors and/or Seniors Only): For juniors and seniors who are willing to be restricted to the Woodland Parking lot at all times, a limited number of Woodland-Only parking permits are available at a discounted rate (a discount of $100 off of the annual registration fee, or $50 off of the semester fee). You should not choose this option unless you understand that you will be required to park in the Woodland parking lot at all times. If your vehicle is found parked on the main campus for any length of time, no matter how short, it will be subject to a fine.

If you would like to request a Woodland-Only permit, please indicate below. By requesting the permit, you are affirming that you understand you are restricted to the Woodland lot at all times, and that you will be responsible for all fines incurred for parking on the main campus. We encourage you to carefully consider whether this parking limitation will truly fit your parking needs before requesting this option.

	Yes -- I am requesting a Woodland-Only Permit; and by selecting this option, I affirm that I will park in the Woodland Lot at all times (and will be subject to citation for parking on the main campus).
	No -- I am not requesting a Woodland-Only option permit.

18. ELECTRONIC SIGNATURE: By entering your initials below, you affirm that you are responsible to be aware of and abide by all campus and Commonwealth motor vehicle regulations (which are available on the GO site; see link at the top of this page).
