SLC Bus Pass

Full-time fee-paying students receive a universal bus pass, included in your student fees. This pass gives you unlimited access to local public transit, making it easy and affordable to get around. Just tap your student card and go!

Who is Eligible?

All new and returning full-time Kingston students are eligible for the bus pass from the period of September 1, 2024, to August 31, 2025.

How It Works

If you do not have a student card by September 1st, you will NOT be able to use the bus pass, until you have followed the link above to receive your card. Submit your information for student card as soon as possible!

New this year, your student card is your bus pass! To gain entrance to the bus, you will have to tap your student card. If you don’t have your student card yet, you can fill out a request form through the URSLC platform.

Cost

The bus pass fee is $190 for the year. This fee has been applied to all eligible students’ accounts. If you are not enrolled full-time, you will not receive a bus pass, and the fee does not apply to you.
