In 2018 GPRC implemented a three-year plan to increase parking rates on the Grande Prairie campus, to better reflect the costs of operating and maintaining the parking lots.
This information applies the Grande Prairie Campus only, as GPRC permits are not required on our Fairview Campus or West Yellowhead Learning Centres.
Parking permits for the academic year will be made available to students for pickup two business days after purchase has been made online.
Purchases made through the academic year can also be picked up two business days after the date of purchase.
Following a completed purchase, print your confirmation and pick up your permit at Facilities - Maintenance and Operations, G102. Photo identification is required for pickup.
Facilities - Maintenance and Operations is open during the summer, so parking passes can be picked up before the academic year begins.
