Fall 2024 Immersion Vanderbilt Funding
Lyft Rideshare Assistance Program- Fall 2024
Description of Award:
Do you need help traveling to and from your Nashville internship or research opportunity? The Career Center is now offering rideshare assistance through Lyft.
To qualify for the program, students must have a Lyft account (and users must have payment on file). Another factor to consider is any ride taken that meets the established parameters will pull from the user’s Program funds even if the ride is not for their approved internship. The user has 24 hours after the ride to update the funding source to the appropriate account (credit card or another Lyft Program). It is your responsibility to ensure the funds are used appropriately. You are solely responsible for updating rides to correctly charge the appropriate funding source.
