Parking

Starting this semester, all students, faculty and staff will be required to purchase and display parking permits. Student parking permit fees are as follows:

Students - $30
Motorcycles-$10
Daily use - $4
Hourly use-$1 

Once you are enrolled in fall classes, you may order your parking permit HERE or after paying for your classes in the MyChaffey portal.

CCSJ and DPS relocations

Disability Programs and Services (DPS) has moved to AD-109, which was previously the home of the Center for Culture and Social Justice (CCSJ). The move will allow the DPS team to be closer to general and EOPS counseling, and will also provide DPS students with more accessible access to student support areas, such as Admissions and Financial Aid.

The CCSJ is now located in CCE-100, where DPS was previously located. This move will allow cultural programming to be adjacent to Student Life, resulting in a more robust campus life in the Quad and Shade Structure areas. The indoor and outdoor space is also larger, which is needed to benefit more of our students.

Campus Store

The Campus Store is now integrated with Canvas, meaning you can view all of your course materials in one place. Look for the "course material" link in the Student Hub and course navigation menu in Canvas. Please visit the campus store's website for more information, to have orders shipped or to request pick up at store locations.   

More helpful information on additional student services, including Financial Aid, Success Centers and more, can be found here.

Have a great fall semester, Panthers!

Sincerely,

Alisha Rosas
Associate Superintendent, Student Services and Strategic Communications
