U-Pass BC

U-Pass BC is a student public transportation monthly pass valid through British Columbia and on the TransLink system in Metro Vancouver. The original concept of a regional-wide initiative was expanded province-wide in June, 2010 when the provincial government created the U-Pass BC program that offers standardized transit program for all public post-secondary students beginning of September, 2010. The Lower Mainland program is currently available to Nicola Valley Institute of Technology, British Columbia Institute of Technology, Douglas College, Vancouver Community College, Emily Carr University of Art and Design, Kwantlen Polytechnic University, Capilano University, Langara College, SFU, and UBC students only. Justice Institute of British Columbia has opted not to participate in the program. Pass holders are eligible to use HandyDART if requirements are met and also for discounted fare on the West Coast Express. On June 1, 2015, the U-Pass BC paper fare passes will be phased out in favor of the Compass Card for students at BCIT, Langara, SFU and UBC. The U-Pass will be fully converted by July 1, when students at Capilano and VCC switch over.
