The Bus
The New England Alumni Chapters coordinate charter buses for PSU students that provide transportation between University Park and New England for Thanksgiving, Winter and Spring breaks. Last year nearly 400 students participated in the service.
The PDF file contains the 2020-21 reservation form, contact information, and other general notes. The physical letter will not be mailed out this year due to the fluidity of scheduling and Spring break details are still TBD. Please note that Manchester, CT is replacing East Hartford as a pick-up and drop-off location this year. The Times / Directions file contains additional details.
PARENT SURVEY: thank you for your many (>40) and thoughtful responses. Based on your feedback, (1) the Thanksgiving travel date will be Sat, Nov 21, (2) we will run the Thanksgiving and Winter break buses at half capacity (at the round trip price), and (3) we will continue to have the buses drop-off and pick-up at all three locations (Danbury, Manchester, Newton).
The "Spring Bus Credits" file lists students / families that are carrying over a credit from the cancelled Spring break 2020 return trip. If making a reservation for the upcoming year, please reduce the amount you would otherwise send in by the credit.
