Sligo combines a vibrant urban centre with stunning natural beauty. This is the perfect setting for an unforgettable student experience.  One of the major plus points to life in Sligo is the sense of community our students feel while benefiting from the support of a team of dedicated staff. With a diverse and plentiful range of accommodation options available, the cost of living in Sligo is one of the most reasonable in Ireland.  

ATU Sligo is home to almost 10,000 students who study full-time, part-time or online. This 72-acre Green Campus combines modern buildings, state-of-the-art facilities and landscaped grounds. It is full of bright and contemporary spaces to ensure students get the best experience possible.

Car Parking

Car park management services are provided by ATU contract security staff and motorists are obliged to always comply with security personnel directions.

The car parks on the Sligo campus are at capacity most days and we strongly encourage staff, students & visitors to use alternative modes of transport. There are approximately 900 spaces across campus. 720 of the spaces are free to park with the remaining 180 spaces incurring a reasonable hourly tariff.

The paid parking is located at the visitor car park at Block H and at the Clarion road car park. The free parking is available at the main car park in front of Block E and at the Knocknarea arena.

Please be aware that clamping is in operation for vehicles parked in areas that do not comply with the car parking policy.

Clamping may occur, but is not limited to, the following instances –

A fee of €50 is charged to release the clamp and a €200 charge is applied if the clamp is tampered with. A sticker is placed on the rear passenger window to warn that the vehicle has been clamped. You should contact Security to get the clamp released.
