About the Universal Bus Pass
Students registered in 1.5 or more credits are charged the Universal Bus Pass (U-Pass) Fee. With your U-Pass, you have access to St. Catharines, Thorold, Niagara Falls, Welland, Fort Erie, Pelham and the Niagara Regional Transit Systems. The U-Pass is effective from September 1st until April 30th of every academic year. There is no Universal Bus Pass from May 1st until August 31st. During O-Week, students can pick up their pass at Vendor Fair (Weather Station Field) to get their 2019-20 U-Pass sticker. For more information on your Universal Bus Pass, how to get to Brock and around the Niagara Region, please check out the resources that we have provided on this site. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact your Vice-President, Finance & Administration (contact information to the left).
Each year Brock students use St. Catharines & Thorold Transit over 2,500,000 times. Knowing this, BUSU has arranged for over 15 dedicated routes that will get students directly to Brock. We encourage you to download the St. Catharines Transit app (link found on right) so you can be sure to never miss a bus and always know which routes will get you to your destination.
Please familiarize yourself with the maps, routes and timing as you may live in an area that requires you to transfer buses at the Pen Centre or Downtown Terminal. Remember, you a required to have a valid 2018-19 U-Pass sticker on your Brock ID to ride the bus.
