What are the eligibility criteria for receiving a parking permit?

If you live outside of the Guildford area (outside of the GU1 and GU2 postcode areas), there is a strong possibility that you will be granted a permit to park.

If you live inside the Guildford area or in university accommodation, you will need to meet one of the following criteria:

Criteria for parking eligibility:

  1. Proven medical need (either from the Disability & Neuroinclusion team or a Medical Practitioner)
  2. Proven caring or childcare commitments (we only consider needs for children of 13 years and under)
  3. Mandatory short-term placement during this academic year (i.e. not lasting the full year)
  4. Dual Career Athlete Scheme

Please note: part-time work is not considered valid for applications or appeals.

All applications will be considered on their merits and parking will not be issued on a first come, first served basis.
