Transportation Services
Most Seattle campus students are automatically enrolled in the Universal U-PASS program. Faculty and staff members are eligible either for a subsidized U-PASS or to purchase one once they have received their Husky Card. The U-PASS provides full fare coverage on King County Metro, Community Transit, Sound Transit, Pierce Transit, Kitsap Transit, Everett Transit bus services, Sound Transit's Link light rail and Sounder commuter trains. U-PASS members tap the Husky Card on the ORCA card readers in place of payment. Additional benefits include free rides on the NightRide Shuttle and discounts at participating merchants. For more information about the U-PASS, visit UW Transportation Services. Students should also review our information about the student U-PASS.
