TTC Student Metro Pass Program
The Student Union will no longer be offering Monthly Metro Passes. Starting September 2010, TTC will be offering the Secondary Student (Pass) Program
How this works: Every OCAD student, (PT & FT) will be eligible for this program. You will need to go to the Sherbourne Station between the designated hours, with government I.D and proof of enrollment. You will have your photo taken and a Secondary Student (Pass) Card issued on the spot.

This card costs $5.25 and is valid for a year. If you loose or have this card stolen you will need to replace the card for an additional $5.25

Once you have this card you can purchase your monthly discounted pass for $99 at ANY TTC booth.

Please note you can NOT use this pass to purchase tokens or tickets. It is only available for monthly metro passes
