Parking on campus
Most students without an Extenuating Circumstance (EC) permit can park on College Lane campus only in:

- Car Park E (behind the Art and Design building)
To park on campus, you must register with Hozah, the University's parking provider.
Register for parking: Hozah
Overnight parking is not permitted unless you have a residential parking permit.
1. How do I register for parking?
Before parking on campus, you must register your vehicle and payment details with Hozah.
After registering:
- Check that you have received a confirmation email (including your spam or junk folder).
- Manage your vehicle details and payments through your Hozah account.
- Parking charges will be collected automatically.
If you park before registering, you must register by 11.59pm on the same day to avoid receiving a Parking Charge Notice (PCN).
Parking for up to two hours is free, but you must still register with Hozah.

Parking for students with a disability, caring responsibilities or young children
If you have a Blue Badge, you can park on either campus. You must still register with Hozah and pay the reduced parking rate.
If you do not qualify for a Blue Badge, you may be eligible for an Extenuating Circumstances (EC) permit, which may allow parking on both College Lane and de Havilland campuses.
An EC permit gives you permission to park, but does not guarantee a parking space.
