Malibu Campus Vehicle Permits

§ 3.00.00 Vehicle Registration

§ 3.01.00 All vehicles on campus, including motorcycles, scooters, and mopeds, must be properly registered with Pepperdine University and the Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV). Compliance with the registration process includes: the proper display of a campus parking permit, possession of a valid driver's license, proof of auto insurance, and current DMV registration tags on the vehicle.

§ 3.02.00 University registration may be completed at pepperdine.thepermitstore.com or by coming to the Public Safety office during regular business hours. Registration requires an email address, vehicle information, and a mailing address. Currently, there is no charge for on campus vehicle registration.
