RCC Student Pass Program
Josephine Community Transit Student Pass Program Josephine Community Transit (JCT) in partnership with Rogue Community College (RCC), offers a student pass program for all RCC students. This program allows for unlimited boardings on any JCT service during the current term. The pass is purchased at RWC Rogue Central and is $30 per term.
The JCT pass is simply a sticker that is attached to the back of a RCC student ID card. The user just shows the sticker to the driver when boarding a JCT bus. This sticker is good for rides on any of the routes within Grants Pass, as well as any commuter service offered by JCT in Josephine or Jackson County
The Rogue Valley Transportation District Student Pass Program
The Rogue Valley Transportation District (RVTD) also has student pass program for RCC. The RVTD program provides RCC students with a Touch Pass, an electronic fare card. The card is good for fares anywhere in the RVTD system and can per purchased at the RVC Library.
The Touch Pass can only be used for paying fares on the JCT's Rt 100 operating between Jackson and Josephine County. If you are a user of the RVTD RCC Touch Pass, you just need to show the fare card to the driver, along with your RCC student ID, when you board.
JCT and RVTD transfers

If you are riding the Rt 100 and need to transfer in Medford inform the driver when you board. The transfer is good for 60 minutes once you arrive at RVTD's Front Street Station.
