Apparently there were some system problems, created by the State Legislature’s last minute decision to raise tuition retroactively, that have caused issues with student parking permits. The following e-mail went out to all students, but if you’re one of them, make sure you double check your parking status!

Dear Student,

We have experienced challenges with student parking permits and ASSC stickers for fall 2009. On July 29th the State of California imposed a $6 per unit fee increase which was added on to your student account for the classes you have registered in for the fall semester. At that time our system automatically redistributed the payments that you had made for a parking permit and/or ASSC sticker to the new balance owed for the enrollment fee increase.

As a result, if you still wish to reorder your parking permit and/or ASSC sticker in time for the fall semester you will need to log into your mySierra account immediately and click on the “Pay Fees” link in the Registration channel. Please note; parking permits and/or ASSC stickers can only be purchased online and will be mailed directly to your home. In order to give you more time to order and receive your permit and/or sticker, the district will not issue parking citations until September 14.

Also, we highly recommend that you continue to log into your mySierra Account on a regular basis as we will be using that and your sierracollege.edu email address to communicate changes that will be important to your student status.

If you have questions, you can reach the Sierra College Public Information Office by calling 916-660-7271.
