RTD EcoPass

Benefited employees have access to free RTD bus and train services through the RTD MyRide App.

The RTD MyRide App EcoPass still works for all regular bus and train services, including the A Line to Denver International Airport, just like your old EcoPass Card!

All cards will be switched off September 30, so you must install the MyRide App if you wish to continue using your RTD EcoPass.

Full instructions for installing the app, creating your account, and activating your EcoPass can be found here:

If you cannot access the MyRide App, contact benefits@du.edu and we can assist you with obtaining a MyRide Card.

Take advantage of a robust solution that can make a significant difference when it comes to student debt.* Brought to you through TIAA and powered by Savi, this tool helps find the best federal repayment and forgiveness programs for your financial situation — plus it simplifies the long-term task of navigating the way to forgiveness.

  • Caps your payment based on your income and family size
  • Frees up funds that you can direct towards other financial goals
  • Removes the complexities of forgiveness

*Between January 1, 2019, and December 31, 2019, based on Savi’s internal measurements, Savi users saw average projected savings of $1,880 per year.


What to Expect When Applying for Forgiveness

Savi streamlines the entire process, from helping you enroll in forgiveness programs to ongoing support and payment tracking, ensuring you remain on track from start to forgiveness—all for a small fee.* Here's a snapshot of what will happen:

  1. Enroll in Savi Essential Service.
  2. Provide your basic information. Savi handles the rest — from checking your forgiveness application for accuracy and completion all the way to submission.
  3. After verification, which Savi handles, everything is sent to your loan servicer.
  4. You'll receive reminders from Savi for ongoing things you may need to do afterward, like an annual submission to the PSLF program. That way you stay in compliance with all of the particulars that go along with forgiveness programs.

Take a minute and find out how much you could lower your monthly payment. Visit TIAA.org/du/student today to calculate your savings.
