Travel discount helps students get on the road to University

With almost 400,000 new students making the trip to University next month, National Express has relaunched its popular Young Person Coach Card – offering 30% off all journeys for the next three years.

According to NUS figures, the cost of being a student is now in excess of £15,000 per year – with over £2000 on transport costs alone.

National Express’ Young Persons Travel Card is available to all 16 – 26 year olds and anyone in full time education. The card costs £10 for one year or £25 for three years of discounted travel.

Examples of the travel savings available with the Young Persons card:
