A brief description of the program:
U-PASS is a service that provides city transportation passes to qualified students from the U of S. The program provides students with public transportation service at less than $18 per month instead, of the usual rate of $71 per month for an adult bus pass. Some students are exempt from this program, such as students that live in on-campus residences, have a disability parking pass, live outside city limits during the term, or are enrolled in distance education classes. In addition, the University is currently doing a pilot project to assess the feasibility for a similar pass for staff, faculty and grad students. The University is also currently in the process of investigating the feasibility of a shuttle service to more efficiently transport people between the main campus and our adjacent research park.
