U-Passes Linked to Compass Card Starting May 16th

Starting May 16th, the U-Pass will be linked to Translink’s new Compass Card program and you will no longer need to pick-up a paper U-Pass monthly. All students registered in Summer Session courses will be eligible for Compass Card. Please visit the U-Pass/Compass Card page on UBC’s Campus & Community Planning website for further instructions on picking up your Compass Card and linking your Compass Card to your U-Pass.
