RSCCD's parking permit system is virtual, your license plate is your permit! All staff, students, and visitors are required to purchase a permit to park on campus. Staff and students can buy their permit online via Self-Service or by selecting the link Purchase Parking Permit. Permit requirements include vehicles parking in a disabled stall. Parking permits are not required during the Summer semester at either the SCC or SAC campus. 

​Student permits only allow one active vehicle per permit.

Purchase Instructions for Students and Staff: Making your purchase is simple and convenient. Be prepared with your vehicle's make, model, year, color, and license plate number.

  1. ​Go to the Permit Store​ and sign in using your RSCCD single sign on (SSO), upper right corner username/password.
  2. After signing in, click "Buy Permit."
  3. Submit your vehicle's information. Your license plate will be saved in the system ans serve as your permit. 
  4. Once payment has been made, your permit will be active.
  5. Faculty/Staff have the option of having three vehicles active on the permit. 

Guest Permits: Guest permits can be purchased online at https://rsccd.thepermitstore.com/. Permits offered are:
  • Daily - $2

  • Term (16 weeks from date of purchase) - $30

​Persons that have paid the appropriate fee shall be permitted to use the Rancho Santiago Community College (RSCCD) parking facilities at all of its locations including Santa Ana College and Santiago Canyon College.

Motorcycles, Mopeds, Bicycles

No permit is required for motorcycles, mopeds, or bicycles if parked in designated motorcycle parking or bike racks. Use of a vehicle stall requires a permit.


​ View Parking & Traffic Violation Fines

Vehicles may be issued citations for illegal parking or any other violation of parking and traffic regulations.

Important

Citations are paid ​by mailing the fine to:

RSCCD Parking Administration

2323 N. Broadway Suite 101

Santa Ana, CA 92706

 or pay by phone at 1-877-800-1901

Any person who feels a citation was issued in error may contest the citation within 21 days of issuance or 14 days from the delinquent notice. ​According to California law, non-payment of citations will result in a registration hold at DMV, and renewal of vehicle registration is contingent upon compliance.

Parking Lot Security​

The college provides personnel to patrol the parking lots. However, persons parking on district property do so at their own risk. RSCCD does not assume any responsibility for loss or damage to vehicles or their contents while parked anywhere on district property. Although our campus is relatively crime free, one type of problem is motor vehicle related theft. ​​Please read our advisory​ carefully.
