If you have requested to deactivate your ODU email but wish to continue receiving Emeriti parking privileges, we kindly ask that you consider reactivating your ODU email account, at least for the purpose of submitting this form. This aligns with practices at many other Virginia institutions and helps ensure secure communication. Non-ODU email addresses cannot be used to complete this process.
