Campus Shuttle

Shuttle Schedule Update

Starting Monday, November 27, 2023 through January 5, 2024, there will only be one shuttle running from 7:00am-5:00pm.

Normal service with two shuttles will resume on Monday, January 8, 2024.

We offer a campus shuttle that runs throughout the day along a set route, along with an on-demand shuttle service. To use either, you'll have to download and use the TripShot app.

The app will allow you to access the ETA of the bus to your pick-up stop as well as to your destination stop. It will also allow you to book on-demand service that will take you to additional stops both on campus, and off-campus.

TripShot Rider App is available again in the Google Play Store.

  • On-Demand Route

    Operates from 10:15am-2:15pm and 5:00pm-7:00pm, Monday - Friday

    Riders must use the app to ride the On Demand route! It is the only way to notify the driver of a rider, provide routing of the bus to riders, direct riders to the stop location, and give riders an alert that the bus is at the stop. If riders want a guest to ride with them, they can add more riders when they request the trip.

    The On-Demand bus can be reserved until 6:30 PM, to allow a ride to be completed before 7:00 PM. View a Google Map of these stops.
