UPASS

Funded by participating colleges and universities, the University Pass Program (UPASS), which RIPTA first introduced in 2001, allows students at participating schools to get free or reduced fare transit. Students who ride free do so by showing their student ID. Students eligible for reduced fares can purchase fare products right on campus. Following is a list of Rhode Island higher education institutions. Click on your school to see what’s offered with UPASS.
