Parking

Your current parking permit will remain valid until Monday 31 August 2026.

If you require a parking permit for next academic year, you will need to submit a new application.

Applications will open on Tuesday 1 September 2026.

Applications are open now. Please read through the information on this page to access your eligibility and submit an application.

You must complete online registration and activate your IT account before applying for a permit.

Cost of parking

• Weekly charges (Monday - Sunday) are capped at £7.50 per week, and you will pay no more than £30 per month.
• Parking is charged at £2 per visit for your first 3 visits in a week, and £1.50 for your 4th visit. Any further visits that week are free.
• Travelling between Stag Hill and Manor Park counts as a single charge per day.

Number of vehicles

Only one car is allowed per permit. Any change of vehicle must be updated at least one day before driving on campus.

Eligibility

If you live outside of GU1 / GU2 postcodes, you are eligible for a PAYG parking permit. No further information or eligibility criteria will need to be assessed by us. 

If you live within GU1 / GU2 postcodes, your application will be automatically rejected and you will need to appeal under one of the following criterion: 

• Medical grounds 
• Caring responsibilities 
• Dual Career Athlete scheme.

Purple permits are available with support from our Disability and Neuroinclusion team, and allow you to park in any parking space including accessible bays.

Once approved, your permit can be collected from Stag Hill Reception, and must be displayed in the windscreen when parking.

Eligibility

If you live outside of GU1 / GU2 postcodes, you are eligible for a PAYG Accessible parking permit. No further information or eligibility criteria will need to be assessed by us. 

If you live within GU1 / GU2 postcodes, your application will be automatically rejected and you will need to appeal under one of the following criterion: 

• Medical grounds 
• Caring responsibilities 
• Dual Career Athlete scheme.

You have three options to choose from:

• Auto restore: automatically tops up to a defined balance (e.g. tops up to £50 when balance is low).
• Auto top-up: adds a fixed amount when your balance drops (e.g. £25 each time).
• Manual top up: your account will not automatically be topped up when your balance runs low. You must manually add money to your account yourself via Evology Autopay website. Example: If your balance is £1.00 and you make a £2.00 parking transaction, it will be declined unless you’ve added funds yourself beforehand.

Important: drivers are not notified when funds are low, so you will need to check your balance regularly. Failed payments will lead to 3 warning emails, and if payment is not made within 3 days a Parking Charge Notice (PCN) will be issued. 

An automatic payment is taken from your registered card after each session – there is no need to top up an account.

This is our recommended option as it avoids the requirement to monitor your balance - your payment will be taken as long as you have funds available on your registered card.

Limited parking is available at Stag Hill and Manor Park for students living in University-managed accommodation.

Please note: parking at Bellerby Court is managed through a different provider. Please see the Bellerby Court Residents dropdown for information.

Cost of parking

Monthly renewal and payment options

• Each month, you will receive 3 emails from the Evology Permit System prompting you to renew your permit and make payment through Worldpay.
• It’s important to make your payment before the date of your initial payment. For example, if you paid for your permit on 13 September, your next payment must be made by 12 October to keep your permit valid.
• Your payment is only valid from the day you make it and covers the following 4 weeks. Payments cannot be backdated.
• You can also choose make up to 9 payments in advance, covering up to June 2026.
• If you do not renew, your permit will become invalid and a Parking Charge Notice (PCN) may be issued if you park in a permit holder car park.
• If you are not planning to be on campus during a given month, you do not need to renew until you return.

Cost of parking

Blue Badge holders are entitled to free parking in any permit holder car park across Stag Hill and Manor Park (including Kate Granger). This includes all accessible parking bays.

Number of vehicles

Only one car is allowed per permit. Any change of vehicle must be updated at least one day before driving on campus.

Guidance for Blue Badge holders

• Your Blue Badge must be issued in your own name. 
• You must not use a Blue Badge issued to a family member or any other person. Using someone else's Blue Badge is illegal and may constitute fraud. Any student found using a Blue Badge that has not been issued to them will be referred to the University's Office of Student Complaints, Appeals and Regulation (OSCAR) for investigation and may also be reported to the relevant external authorities where appropriate.
• Your vehicle registration must be linked to your Blue Badge permit to avoid receiving fines through our Automatic Number Plate Recognition (ANPR) system.
• You must display your Blue Badge in your windscreen when using our accessible parking bays.
• Blue Badge holders may also park on double yellow lines for up to 2 hours, provided the Blue Badge and parking clock are correctly displayed, with the arrival time clearly set. Vehicles must not block access roads, emergency routes, dropped kerbs, entrances, or any area that could obstruct other vehicles or pedestrians. Failure to display the badge and clock correctly may result in a PCN.
