College Police is responsible for ensuring the general safety and security of students, faculty, and staff as well as operating parking on college properties. Students are required to purchase and display a daily parking permit or new parking permit for each semester (fall, spring, and summer) and may park at the Oceanside Campus in marked stalls in student lots 1A, 1B, 2A, 2B, 3A, 3B, 3C, 4C, 5A, or 5B and in marked spaces along Barnard Drive. Additionally, after 6 p.m. students with valid student permits may park in staff spaces on the Oceanside Campus in Parking Lots 1C, 3C, 4C, and 5A only. At the San Elijo Campus and Community Learning Center, students may park in marked spaces in student lots. Parking permits are required at all times while school is in session. Daily parking permits may be purchased at all three campuses. The district accepts no responsibility for damage to vehicles or their contents while parked on district property. (Source: MCCD Board Policy/Administrative Procedure 6750.)
Disabled students who require special parking must have a Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) placard or plate, which can be obtained at the local DMV office. Students who have a valid disabled placard or plate must still register their vehicle with College Police but do not need to purchase a parking permit. Disabled placards will be honored in lieu of a parking permit. Temporary parking arrangements can be made for students who sustain a temporary injury; these permits are available at the Disabled Students Programs and Services Office. MiraCosta College Parking Guidelines are available at College Police offices and on the College Police website.
Students, staff, faculty, and campus guests may request an escort from College Police. The service is provided during regular office hours at each campus location. College Police assists with vehicle lock outs, jump starts, and traffic control, and it hosts community policing events and a women's self-defense program. College Police also coordinates the district's Emergency Preparedness Program.
A copy of MiraCosta College's annual Safety & Security Report (in accordance with the Uniform Crime Reporting Procedures and the Jeanne Clery Disclosure of Campus Security Police and Campus Crime Statistics Act) is available to students and prospective students. This report includes statistics for the previous three years concerning reported crimes that occurred on campus, in certain off-campus buildings or property owned or controlled by the college, and on public property within or immediately adjacent to and accessible from the campus. The report also includes institutional policies concerning campus security, such as policies concerning sexual assault. You can obtain a copy of this report by contacting College Police or through the College Police website.
