FAQs What is Revise Your Ride? Revise Your Ride is Princeton University’s comprehensive commute benefits program, supporting employees and students in choosing to commute by public transit, sharing a ride with a colleague, biking, or walking instead of driving alone. Parking facilities often impede the mission of the University, usually in terms of land-use decisions and its commitment to sustainability. As a result, Princeton seeks to reduce the number of single-occupancy vehicles (SOVs) on campus by providing financial incentives and other resources to participants. We realize alternative transportation options may not work for everyone. Some faculty and staff may find that their commutes and lifestyles require driving to campus each day, and that’s okay. The more employees participate in the alternative commute benefits program, the more all of us benefit from space and other resources that can be directed to facilities and green spaces directly in support of the University's mission. I am not commuting to campus every day I work, can I still qualify for Revise Your Ride? Individuals working on-campus three days a week or more qualify for Revise Your Ride. These benefits are provided for individuals that commit to using one of the six alternative transportation choices including biking, walking, bus, transit, carpool, or vanpool as their primary commute. Who is eligible to participate in Revise Your Ride? All Revise Your Ride programs are open to benefits-eligible employees. Full-time graduate students without campus housing assignments are eligible to participate in the NJ Transit Bus Pass and 50% Mass Transit Subsidy program. Please note that some visiting employees and student statuses are not considered eligible for these programs.Princeton University Affiliates and Graduate Students may participate in University carpools or vanpools but are not eligible to receive the financial incentive payments for those programs.If you have any questions about your eligibility status, please contact The Service Point. I use a number of different ways to get to work, can I combine commuter benefits? University employees and students are limited to one Revise Your Ride benefit at a time. Please select the benefits program that best represents your primary commute.If you have any questions, please contact The Service Point. Revise Your Ride does not provide incentives for drop-offs, parking offsite and walking/biking, or remote working. As Revise Your Ride is intended to support campus sustainability efforts, are there any benefits available for electric vehicles? The University has installed electric vehicle charging stations in parking facilities across campus.Please note that these chargers are intended to supplement the energy needs of EV owners, not serve as the primary energy source.Read more about registering your EV and using the chargers. Is the Revise Your Ride program flexible if my commuting needs change? Not every day can be an alternative commute day, so flexibility is built into the program to give you options based on your needs. Learn more about the flexibility options built into the program. Local Movement, Global Impact The University is committed to achieving carbon neutrality for all campus emissions by 2046 as well as support sustainable action at all scales, from personal to global. In New Jersey, more than 40% of greenhouse gas emissions come from the transportation sector, with significant climate and human health implications, particularly for overburdened communities. Through Revise Your Ride and the Campus Mobility Framework, the University looks to double the percentage of alternative commuters and expand the use of campus as an incubator for lifelong sustainable transportation habits.
