Whether you have the semester ticket or the Deutschland-Ticket, the best way to get to Ruhr University is to take the U35.

Original message

By paying an extra 12.33 euros per month for the rest of the summer semester 2023, students can now also travel outside North Rhine-Westphalia. This upgrade is available only via the RIDE Campus app.

(Status: April 27, 2023, 2 p.m.)

The surcharge is a subscription that can be cancelled on a monthly basis, just like the Deutschland-Ticket. You’ll have to renew your subscription for each semester. The surcharge is calculated from the difference between the 49 euros for the Deutschlandticket and the semester ticket portion of the social contribution (broken down into monthly payments).

Only students who want to upgrade their VRR and NRW ticket to the Deutschland-Ticket will have to take out the additional (monthly) subscription. If you only travel in NRW, the regular semester ticket remains your best option.
