Category: Parking and Traffic

The state of Kansas recently began issuing new license plates that include four numbers and three letters. If you have a new license plate, please update your information in the parking portal, which can be found in your myWSU under “ePermits,” to avoid a citation.

You cannot edit your current listing; you must delete it and add the new one. If you have questions, email wsuparking@wichita.edu or call 316-978-5526.
