We apologize for the inconvenience, we understand these are challenging times, however, due to the overwhelming response, Lyft codes are still not available. We are working hard to resolve this and hope to reopen the program soon.

Broward College has partnered with Lyft to assist students that are experiencing transportation challenges. Broward College Lyft Ride program is designed to be emergency supplemental transportation. Eligible students can receive Lyft ride credits to use in their Lyft mobile app. Please be advised, that as there is a limited number of codes, students are only eligible to receive either monthly codes or one-semester code. If any student exceeds the monthly or semester code they receive, they will be responsible for subsequent transportation to and from the institution. Approved students will be notified via Broward College email.

Eligibility Criteria
