First Year Experience School of Education UON

24/05/2022

Hello students, just a reminder that the Study Tour EOIs (round 1) close this Friday. We would love to get some more students apply. This is a great experience (elective course) and the cost is deferred via an OS-HELP loan. Happy to answer any questions.

Did you buy a student parking permit this semester? 🚗

We know with COVID-19 restrictions you might not have had a chance to use it like you normally would, so we’re automatically refunding three months of your permit back into your account.

You don’t have to do anything to get the refund, but if you haven’t received it by November 30 you should get in touch with us.

If you’ve been approved to come back onto campus, don’t worry – you can still use your permit.

Please note - this only applies to student parking permits, not residential parking permits. For residential parking permit enquiries, please contact Student Living via email ([email protected]).
