College U-Pass Program

Does your College offer a U-Pass program?

All NKU and Gateway students, faculty and staff can now ride FREE on TANK. 

There are no forms to fill out and no paperwork to sign.  Anyone with a valid NKU All-Card or Gateway ID can ride, simply show your ID to the driver upon boarding and ride any route in the TANK system for free.

The program is an effort to help lighten the financial burden of attending college. There are obvious environmental implications as well. "It's a 'green' thing in more ways than one," Dr. Votruba said. "Our students can save money while they're helping the environment. We hope that our faculty, staff and students will take advantage of this tremendous perk."

Gateway President/CEO Dr. G. Edward Hughes said he was very pleased that the college was able to partner with TANK on the initiative. “Accessibility is a key part of our mission in in providing postsecondary education and training,” Dr. Hughes said. “The U-PASS program with TANK makes our campuses more accessible than ever to our students. It will also alleviate the burden resulting from rising gasoline prices.”

Don't just ride to class, hop on the bus and go shopping, to the movies or out with friends. Ride for free anytime, any place.
