Carpool — Student & Staff

Imagine...

  • Gas & parking costs cut in half
  • Parking in a convenient, reserved spot
  • Relaxing in the passenger's seat while your buddy drives
  • Riding in the carpool lane on the freeway
  • Earning rewards

Employee Carpool

Employees get rewarded $1/day to carpool. If you are a CSULB employee carpooling with another CSULB employee or student, thereby freeing up a CSULB parking space, you may apply for and receive a employee carpool parking permit.

Students

Student Carpool Permit

If you have applied and have been accepted into the Rideshare Program you may apply for a carpool tag. To get a student carpool tag, simply stop by the Parking Office in Lot 15 with your carpool partner. Just exchange your original parking permit for a carpool permit for free!

Prospective Program

Employee Vanpool

Want to pay only 1/8 of what you're paying now for gas and parking? How about 1/12? Want access to fast-moving, carpool-only lanes on the freeway and a reserved carpool space on campus? If you live 20 miles or more from campus, we're here to help.
