Wells College

The Wells College Transportation Department is dedicated to enriching the student experience outside of the main campus.  Whether it is transporting students to off campus classes, internships, bus stations and airports or immersing them in the fun activities that the Finger Lakes has to offer, we strive to provide these services in a timely and safe manner.  Below are the services that we currently provide.  We are always finding new ways to become more efficient and expand our services.  There are exciting new services being introduced this Fall 2018 semester. 

If you have cannot find the answers to your questions on the Globe please email, transportation@wells.edu.

This is a daily service that brings students to the Ithaca area for various amenities and entertainment.  Students interested in wanting to participate need to come to the Transportation Department located in Bellinzoni building.  In the entryway there is a log book that highlights the times and locations that this service will be active.  Students must fill out when they wish to leave Wells and when they wish to return.  Students that do not sign up for a return time and plan on staying in Ithaca overnight must annotate that on the form.

Starting September 2018, Transportation will be offering Sunday trips to a varying amount of amazing locations throughout the Finger Lakes area and beyond.  Students can find more information and sign up for these trips under the “Sunday Fun Day” Section on the Globe.  Transportation will announce the activities for the entire month and students can sign up for activities a maximum of two weeks in advance and the cut off day for registration is the Friday before the trip.

The driver and van will bring you to the primary location selected for that trip.  However, if the group decides that they would like to venture somewhere else in the trips immediate area, then the driver can bring the group anywhere they want to go.  

*Transportation is providing the travel free of charge and will only cover the cost of admittance to the location they are traveling to.

In addition to our daily Ithaca runs, Wells Transportation will bring students to Auburn on a weekly basis on Mondays. The students can pick any destination in Auburn they need to go. The van driver will bring you there and wait while you shop or conduct your business and then bring you back to campus. To sign up for the shuttle, come to the Bellazoni building in the front foyer and place your name on the list. The shuttle leaves at 5:00pm.
