2. Meet at least one of the following eligibility criteria:

Commuting students living outside GU1 and GU2 postcodes

If you live outside the GU1 and GU2 postcodes, you will generally be eligible for a Pay As You Go (PAYG) (including Accessible) Permit. Applications will be checked against student records to verify residential addresses.

If you are a Blue Badge holder, you are entitled to free parking at the University.Applications will also be checked against student records.
