Student Bus Travel

If you're a student in York, there isn't a better way to get around than with First!

We offer frequent services, quality buses and discounted fares for students to help you make the most of your studies and your time in York.

All our tickets are available to students at University of York and York St. John University. * University ID is required to purchase an Annual/All Term, Term ticket, Student Week, Student Yorkey 10/20 Trip and Student Day ticket.

Buy tickets on your mobile with the First Bus App

Plus you can now buy your student ticket on your mobile. All you need to do is download the app, buy your ticket and scan it using our on-board ticket machines - easy. To find out more and get your app, click here.

You'll need a passport sized photograph the first time you apply for a First student ticket. If you're renewing, just give us your photocard number (unless you want to replace a dodgy picture!)

Travel with First couldn't be safer – most of our buses are CCTV fitted, our drivers are trained in the latest techniques and all buses have our revolutionary DriveGreen technology on board, guaranteeing a smoother ride.

Our student site gives information on our services to the main University sites, along with details of our great value tickets. Just select your place of study from the menu. Why not take a look around the rest of the site to see where else you could get to?
