Student Travelpasses can only be obtained from our Travel Shop in Fleming Way. An application form is required to be completed for the first issue. These are available from our Travel Shop in Fleming Way, Swindon or Student Services offices at New College and Swindon College. A new application form is required for each academic year, starting 1st September.

You first need to obtain a (Student) Network Card. Your monthly Student Travelpass will then be loaded onto the Network Card. For future monthly renewals please make sure you bring your Network Card with you.

To obtain your first card take the application form to our Fleming Way Travel Shop together with the following:

  1. An up to date passport photograph.

  2. Proof of age: one of the following –
    Under 16 Years:
    • Citizencard
    • Or other photographic proof of age
    16 Years or over:
    • EITHER Identity Card from New College or Swindon College
    • OR Citizencard AND a letter from your school confirming you are in the 6th form

NO OTHER FORM OF I.D. CAN BE ACCEPTED

Cards will take 4 working days to be processed and can then be picked up from our Travel Shop. Cards cannot be sent by post.

 

Stagecoach Users

If you use a Stagecoach bus you will need to show the driver your card AND a ticket showing the card number and expiry date.

This means that if your first journey after you have bought or renewed your Student Travelpass is going to be on a Stagecoach bus you will need to board a Thamesdown bus beforehand to validate your Student Travelpass and obtain a ticket.
