Parking violations may be appealed through the University Parking and Transportation Citation Appeals Committee. Appeals must be submitted within 13 days of the citation's issuance. On the 14th day, a late fee ($20) will be added, and the citation can no longer be appealed, and all appeal requests must be made through the Parking Portal.
