College ID Discounts

[soposkier]

So what mountains out there offer a discount for having a college ID?

I know of Cannon, Ragged and Sunappee. Wildcat used to give the teen rate, not sure if they do anymore. Any other ones? Maybe they are unadvertised.

As for day rates, you need to check with the mountains themselves. Honestly, few do it and the ones that do are local operations generally speaking.

Sunday River and Sugarloaf do offer a College Week deal, but that is for folks who want to stay for a week and ski.

Your best bet is to do a college season pass, which now is a bit late for the best deals. Cannon and other areas in NH used to offer a $199 season pass...no blackouts...no brainer there.

I sympathize with you because my first year of college I spent one semester at one place and another semester at another (that was how the process worked for me). So I could not get a season pass. I found that most mountains would say, "yes we do have college discounts, but it is for a season pass." That is what you are going to hear from most places. Check out Middlebury Snow Bowl, Dartmouth Ski Way, and some other places near colleges that might offer a college day rate. Those two mentioned areas, by the way, are decent skiing and in a good snow year offer the goods and great powder days that last for a while...

You'll have to do the trolling. I'm not doing that, but in my course of trolling, I see a lot of individual promotions and standard rates for students.

Magic has a college season pass for only $149.00. If you use it 3 times you are already almsot 30 bucks under the walk up price.

I remember seeing college deals up at Jay a few years back

I used to go up to Jay with my college ID and get some sort of deal. This was from the 2001-2006 range.
