U-Pass College Student Program
Metro's University Pass program currently benefits several colleges and universities in the D.C. area, including Carnegie Mellon University Heinz College and more than 10,000 American University and Washington College of Law students by providing unlimited riding privileges on Metro Bus and Metro Rail at a substantially discounted price.
At about $1 per student per day, Metro's U-Pass offers an affordable transportation option for students to travel throughout the region for classes, internships, jobs, and other activities.
In just the first year of implementation, U-Pass provided AU students with more than 1.5 million Metro rides.
The U-Pass program is available to any accredited college or university in the WMATA service area. Metro staff is engaging school stakeholders throughout the region, and the decision to participate is made by each university community.
