For parents & families

You worry about their future. We worry about their ride home.

Late classes, games, part-time jobs, and social life mean your student moves a lot — often after dark. Dorm Ryde gives them a safer, campus-based way to get around with clear pricing and simple memberships.

  • Flat, semester-based memberships instead of unpredictable surge pricing.
  • Campus-focused routes between dorms, libraries, stadiums, and housing.
  • A safer option than hoping a stranger in a random car picks them up.
For universities & partners

A structured campus ride network you don’t have to build yourself.

Campuses and companies partner with Dorm Ryde to reduce risk, support student life, and create real value — without taking on the cost and complexity of running transportation internally.

  • Reduce late-night incident risk tied to walking long distances or driving tired.
  • Offer a modern amenity that supports recruitment, retention, and housing satisfaction.
  • Explore co-branded routes, sponsorships, or revenue share structures.
For parents & families

A safer way for your student to move around campus.

Dorm Ryde is not a free-for-all rideshare. It’s a campus-centered system designed around how students actually move — and how parents actually budget.

safety first
Less “text me when you get back” stress.

Your student has a structured way to get home within campus service zones instead of walking across town or hoping an unknown driver shows up.

predictable cost
You know the cost before the semester starts.

Semester-based memberships keep surprise surge fees and random late-night charges off your statement. One plan, clear expectations.

campus focused
Built around their real schedule.

Routes and timing follow campus reality: classes, games, work shifts, and social plans — not commuter rush hour.

How to get your student covered

1
Pick a membership

Choose the plan that matches how often your student is on the move — a few times a week or nearly every day.

2
Activate their account

Complete secure checkout and connect your student’s name, email, and phone. We handle the onboarding steps.

3
They ride. You know the plan.

Your student requests Dorm Ryde trips in the app. You know they have a safer option — and you know what you’re paying this semester.

What a typical weekend looks like without Dorm Ryde:

2 late-night trips + 1 food run (Uber / Lyft surge) $25–$60+ per trip
Dorm Ryde member rides Flat campus rate per trip
Result Safer rides + predictable costs

Exact pricing varies by campus. Our goal: give your student a safer option that can pay for itself in just a few busy weekends.

For universities & partners

Turn student transportation into a strategic advantage.

Dorm Ryde gives campuses, housing groups, and sponsors a structured way to support student mobility, safety, and experience — without you having to build and manage a ride network from scratch.

  • Risk reduction: fewer students walking long distances or driving tired after events, shifts, and late study sessions.
  • Student experience: a modern amenity that parents ask about on tours and students rely on during the year.
  • Flexible models: campus-funded, student-paid, or hybrid membership structures depending on your goals.
  • Data & insight: high-level usage patterns that help you understand how and when students move.
  • Brand & sponsor value: co-branded routes, vehicle wraps, event integrations, and partner placements.
  • Pilot-ready: start with game days, select service zones, or specific hours, then expand as demand proves out.
  • Founder-led execution: built by a U.S. Marine veteran focused on discipline, safety, and real-world logistics.
