Welcome to RAM RUSH!

Starting August 19, 2024, Albany State University will operate the Ram Rush transportation service. This private inter-campus shuttle service is available for students, faculty, and staff, providing transportation between the East and West Campuses. The Ram Rush buses will only make stops on ASU property at designated bus stops, which are clearly marked with ASU-branded bus shelters and bus stop signs.

General Information

Ram Rush Transportation Service
 
Albany State University is excited to offer the Ram Rush transportation service between West Campus and East Campus. All eligible students can use the Ram Rush buses. To be eligible, students must have paid all tuition and fees, including the Transportation Fee. Faculty and staff are also welcome to use the Ram Rush bus after paying the transportation fee.
 
ASU students who use the Ram Rush are governed by the Albany State University Student Code of Conduct.
 
Faculty and staff who wish to participate in the Ram Rush program must complete the “Ram Rush Faculty Application” and submit it to ramrush@asurams.edu. After receiving the completed application, the Transit Fee will be charged to the faculty/staff account. Payment can be made at RAM Central on West Campus. Once payment is confirmed, the ID card will be activated for use.
 
If you arrive at a bus stop and the driver is not on board, please do not attempt to board the bus. No rider is allowed to enter the bus unless the driver is present.
 
Students must have their ID card to ride the bus. The driver will not allow anyone to board without swiping their ID card in the fare box.
 
The Ram Rush service operates only when classes are in session.
 
For additional information, please refer to the Ram Rush FAQ. If your question is not answered there, feel free to email ramrush@asurams.edu.
 
We hope you have a safe and enjoyable experience!
