Hoosier Rideboard FAQ

Who can use Hoosier Rideboard?
Only IU faculty, staff, and students can use Hoosier Rideboard, including regional campuses.
How much does it cost?
The system itself is free to use and does not process payment. Payment, if any, should be determined amongst the parties involved.
How does it work?
Create a profile and post rides and spots in your vehicle. Providing your address will allow the system to show you people who live near you to provide you the most convenient matches. Your complete address is not available to other users until you share it with them. Only city, state, and zip are visible to other users. A map is available to show general location information. You can then reach out to matches by clicking on their profile and sending them an email. Input the dates you want to leave and return and where you’re going. The more people that sign up, the more everyone will be able to find rides and passengers.
What can I use it for?
You can use it for any trip you need to take – we’ve categorized them into “carpool” and “one-time trips”. For example, students may want to post a one-time trip to travel home during university breaks, to sporting events and concerts in other cities, or classes on other campuses. Students can also post a carpool to find people to commute to campus with. Faculty and staff may want to post a carpool to find carpool partners to get to work and post a one-time trip to get to meetings on other campuses.
Can I offer or share rides using Zipcar or IU Motor Pool vehicles?
Yes. You can post seats in a vehicle you’ve reserved from those entities. Zipcar, IU Motor Pool, and other university policy terms and conditions apply.
How do I report a problem?
You can report a problem using the “support” form within Hoosier Rideboard.
