Information for Students

Parking can be the pits

Lets face it, there are never going to be enough spaces for everyone to drive their car to the campus. Congestion and parking problems mean that it's much better to use public transport, walk, ride a bike or to carpool.

Where to Park

• Parking on Campus is divided into different categories. The areas available to Students are:

  • Pay & Display parking (P3 north, P4, P7 west, P8 south) in signposted spaces
  • Parking Station parking (P1, P6)
  • Carpool parking (P4 north)

The first two of these categories are known as Ticket parking. This works out cheaper than  parking station parking, which is intended for short term parkers only.  

Carpool parking is limited to cars that have brought 3 or more people to the Uni.

The parking rules around the University are strictly applied and significant penalties apply.

Spaces are limited and in high demand – check availability now. 

To avoid delays, why not get to uni on the free shuttle bus, or by public transport or bike – it's easier and greener.

Tickets

Any vehicle parked on the Wollongong Campus must display a valid parking ticket or permit. Ticket holders may only park in designated ticket bays or areas. Fees apply. Students are not generally eligible for parking permits. Penalties apply to cars not parked correctly.

Free Carpool Parking

Make the most of your car, save on travel and reduce your carbon emissions. If you carpool and have three or more people arriving at the University together, you'll get free parking on campus (subject to availability).

NRMA Meeting Points

If you break down, proceed to one of five roadside assistance meeting places. Phone NRMA on the security telephone and quote the identification number on the sign at the meeting place.

Free Shuttle Buses

Free shuttle buses are ready to connect you to the University, Innovation Campus, North Wollongong Station and everything on offer in Wollongong.

Cycling

Hundreds of students every day feel great and save money by cycling to Uni. All paths are shared and cycle parking is convenient, uncongested and safe. You'll find undercover secure parking available on the Wollongong and Innovation Campuses.
