U-Pass
The Metro Transit U-Pass program is a discounted transit pass sold only to University of Minnesota students or employees taking at least one credit of courses. The pass is purchased each semester, is only effective for one semester, and has a mandatory $16 (as of Fall 2007) transportation fee not included with the actual cost of the pass. The University of Minnesota has recently switched to the Go-To card system effective as of the Fall 2007 semester which allows for semester renewal up to six years.
