The added promotion is for students who sign up on the transit agency’s mobile app to get the 25% discount student pass for February, March and April.

“When the student completes all three qualifying purchases, they will receive a student pass equal to the lowest-price purchase made in the previous three months and valid for transportation in May 2025,” NJ Transit said in the release. The May promotion is a non-refundable perk.

Eligible students will receive a savings of over 60% when choosing to take advantage of the promotional offer, the agency said Wednesday.
