You stop at Kingswood station and apparently, UWS provides free shuttle buses from there.

As mentioned there is a shuttle bus from Kingswood station so you should get the T-way to Parramatta station then catch the train from there.

Why don't they have the shuttle bus from Penrith station so you don't have to get the ghastly all stations train in order to get off at Kingswood?

There's a shuttle bus? O_O
It says in the UAC Guide that you can walk to campus from Kingswood, and that's what I did at the Academic Advisory Day. If there's a bus, I'm definitely taking that. The fifteen-minute walk in the hot weather wasn't something I enjoyed. >.<

Yes there is a shuttle bus and it's free. I'm going to be going to Kingswood to do honours this year, so I went yesterday to check out the campus and transport options. There is a bus shelter outside of the station, and the bus picks you up from there. You'll know it when you see it, it says something like "UWS shuttle bus" It links all of the penrith campuses, and Kingswood is the first stop. Once you board the driver will probably ask you if you know where you're going and tell you which stop to get off at, well at least the guy I had was really helpful so you should be fine. It comes every half an hour, or at least that was what I was told. I don't know the exact times though. Does anyone know the timetable for the shuttle?

Because then they'd charge you for it. Your getting something for free and your still complaining. Lol.
