Apply for a campus parking permit
Application Process
We will begin to process campus applications for parking from 1st August 2024. The closing date for student applications is 11.59pm on the Friday of Welcome week i.e. the week before the teaching term begins. For the 2024/25 academic year, the deadline is Friday 27th September 2024.
We accept applications from new students, where their course starts part way through the academic year (October-September), within 10 days of the course entry date as specified by RISIS.
Your application will be considered against the following qualifying criteria:
- Medical condition causing current mobility issues
- Temporary incapacity
- Course related requirements
- Lack of public transport
Please note, if you are applying on the basis of a medical condition or a temporary incapacity, you will need to provide medical evidence, or a completed Medical Impact Form. Please refer to the Campus Criteria for more information. We would encourage any student meeting these criteria to register with the University's Disability Advisory Service for other support whilst at University.
If you have a lifelong medical condition and you have previously submitted evidence to us in a past application, you do not need to provide it again. We reserve the right to ask for any additional information deemed appropriate.
For more information on the qualifying criteria, please see theCampus Criteria. We expect suitable supporting evidence to be submitted at the time of the application or as soon as possible thereafter. Failure to provide the supporting evidence will render your application void.
If your application is successful, you will be expected to have paid for, collected, and be displaying your permit within 10 working days of the permit being approved. The Parking Appeal Panel for 2024/25 will meet Monday 4th November 2024. The Parking Appeals Panel meets to determine the outcome of any appeals received in the 2024/25 academic year.
Once you are displaying your permit, you must also park in the correct car parks associated with your permit.
Unsuccessful applicants may appeal the decision, noting the caveats below.

Online payment details will be provided to successful applicants. The amount must be paid within ten working days. Failure to make payment will result in the permit being cancelled.
