We expect to be able to take all new students who book to use the service before bookings close in early September.

Cost

The cost of the service is £25 for students and £30 for any friends or family members who may be accompanying you. 

Luggage

Luggage space on the coaches is limited, so where possible we ask that you restrict your luggage to two items in addition to your cabin bag. 

We will do our best to accommodate all reasonable luggage requests, so if you will be bringing more than two pieces, let us know on the expression of interest form or by contacting us at globalcampus@sheffield.ac.uk.

We are unable to offer a pick-up service from any other UK airport.
