UC students can ride Metro for free

UC*Metro is the name of the two-year partnership, funded by UC Student Government and the university administration, that provides free rides on any Metro bus, at anytime, on any Metro route for UC students, faculty and staff. Due to the high demand of UC faculty, staff and students riding the bus, some of whom were not eligible due to non-payment, expired cards, or discontinued employment by the University, UC and Metro recently developed an agreement to provide a specially issued card for UC Metro users.

All who wish to apply must go to . Students, faculty and staff who apply at this website will receive the new cards by mail within three business days.

The new cards may be used on Metro buses as soon as they are available. The cards are free to currently enrolled students and currently employed staff and faculty. The cards will be issued at the beginning of each quarter and replacements of cards are $50. For more information, go to or call Metro at 513-632-7528.
