Amtrak: 1/2 Off Tickets for College Tours

Monday July 21, 2008
If you haven't checked out your prospective college's campus yet, check out this: Amtrak offers a half off companion ticket to students traveling for that very reason. Provided you're planing to bring a parent or guardian along for the ride, that's a deal worth looking into -- flying and driving this summer are heinously expensive (and the train's a lot more fun than flying -- especially if you've got a sleeper). Amtrak also gives you a 15% discount anytime with an ISIC card, should you be rolling solo. Learn more about both deals:
