Payment Policy For Parking Fines
  1. Payment may be made by cash, personal check, cashier’s check, money order, credit card (Visa or Master Card only) or William and Mary Express card. Coins must be appropriately rolled and are not accepted in bulk. Checks will not be accepted from Seniors after May 1, through graduation.

  2. Employees at the VIMS Campus may mail checks, money orders or cashier’s checks to the Office of Parking Services. Checks should be made payable to the College of William and Mary. Alternatively, they may use the Campus Mail.

  3. Most tickets paid within 10 working days of the date of the ticket will be reduced by $5.00.

  4. Owners of vehicles that have been towed must pay all outstanding fines and fees by one of the methods in #1. If payment is made at the Campus Police office, the William and Mary Express card may not be used. The towing contractor must be paid the towing fee and storage fees, as well.

  5. Payment for fines for wheel locked vehicles may be accepted in the Office of Parking Services by cash, check, credit card or W&M Express card. The wheel lock fee is not reducible. Owners of wheel locked vehicles who have lost their privileges to park on campus must surrender their decals to Parking Services and may not pay at Campus Police to have their wheel lock removed.

  6. Each license plate will receive one no decal warning which does not require payment of a fine. After the first warning violation, subsequent citations must be paid. Warning citations are recorded permanently and are not reset each semester.

  7. Non-payment of past due fines will result in an “administrative hold” in Banner this may preclude students from registering for classes or from receiving diplomas and transcripts. Holds will only be removed upon payment of all past due items. Non-payment of past due fines will prevent faculty and staff from purchasing a new decal or pass until fines are paid.
