Campus Traffic Regulations
Starting in fiscal year 2017, parking fees will be charged at all campuses in an effort to reduce the number of vehicles entering the premises and to enhance safety measures on campus.
To enter the campus by car, you must obtain an entry and parking permit; students without such a permit are generally not permitted to enter the campus by car. If you must enter the campus for unavoidable reasons, parking fees may apply.
Students who have been issued an access card or an access and parking permit are required to pay the parking fee (1,000 yen per month) in a lump sum for the entire year (covering the application period). However, students who are recognized as needing to commute by car due to a physical disability, students who have been granted a tuition reduction or waiver for financial reasons, and students receiving support under the programs specified in Article 5 of the Kochi University Student Support Fund Regulations are exempt from the parking fee.
If you have been granted access and parking permission at any of our campuses, you may enter other campuses by using your access card or by presenting your access and parking permit.
Access and parking permits must be renewed annually. If your period of use ends due to graduation or other reasons, please return your access card to the appropriate office.
When driving on campus, please comply with all applicable traffic laws and regulations, as well as the Kochi University Campus Traffic Regulations. Please park your vehicle in the designated areas.
In addition, please park motorcycles, mopeds, and bicycles in the designated areas on campus. Please turn off the engines of motorcycles and mopeds while on the Asakura Campus.
If you wish to request an access card or an access/parking permit, or if you need to return one, please submit your request using the application form below.
