Mcard and Student Parking Permits Policy
Student Parking Permits
ITS distributes parking permits and/or validation stickers to students registered for the current semester in conjunction with the Mcard distribution at the beginning of the semester (preferred method) in the University Pavilion next to Subway.
New Students (registered for the current semester): Please be sure to bring your Picture ID along with the Make, Model, and License Plate Number for your vehicle to receive your Mcard Student ID and Parking Permit.
Returning Students who already have their Parking Permit(registered for the current semester): Please bring your Mcard and Parking Permit to receive your validation sticker.
Temporary Student Workers (not registered for the current semester): Parking permits for temporary appointments are available at the DPS administrative office. Parking permit form for Temporary Workers
Students can also obtain their parking permit during the remaining portion of the semester at the Mcard stations in the open computing labs at 206 MSB and 3174 WSW.
Obtaining an MCard
UM-Flint students, faculty, and staff can obtain a new or replacement Photo ID card (Mcard) by going to one of the UM-Flint Mcard Stations which are open during normal lab hours (see list of stations below).
At the beginning of every semester, ITS distributes Mcards in the UPAV (next to subway). For the next distribution period, please consult http://blogs.umflint.edu/its/category/mcard/.
A valid picture identification card (such as a driver's license) is necessary to obtain your Mcard.
Stolen or Lost MCards
There is a $10.00 fee to replace Mcards that are lost, stolen, or damaged. You must pay the fee at the Cashier's Office, located at 261 University Pavilion, and bring the receipt to the MCard Station before the MCard can be replaced.
No fee will be charged for Mcards that must be replaced because of name or department changes, expired cards, or a card that no longer functions due to normal wear. When requesting a no-fee replacement, your old Mcard must be returned at the Mcard Station prior to receiving the replacement.
Note: All photo ID and non photo ID cards are property of the University of Michigan and must be surrendered upon request.
Found Mcard
If an Mcard is found and returned to the Mcard Station, an email will notify the cardholder of where they can retrieve it.
Previous Mcards
Once a replacement Mcard is issued, all previous Mcards become invalid. If a cardholder locates a previously lost Mcard (after a replacement card is issued), the previously lost card cannot be re-activated or used to turn in to an ID Issuing Station to avoid paying a replacement fee or receive a refund.
Please consult the Mcard page at http://www.umflint.edu/its/services/mcard.htm for complete details about MCard uses, MCard station locations, and the project history.
