U-Pass
The U-Pass program provides eligible, full-time students with unlimited travel each semester on Durham Region Transit (DRT) as part of their ancillary fees.
U-Passes are distributed at the beginning of each semester. Passes will be issued daily to newly registered students throughout the semester.
The U-Pass is now available for use with physical and digital PRESTO cards! It is no longer accessible through the PRESTO E-Tickets app.
This will allow eligible, full-time students to take advantage of discounts offered through Ontario’s One Fare program when transferring between DRT and participating transit agencies. For questions regarding One Fare, please call the PRESTO Contact Centre at 1-877-378-6123.
Note: Students who activate their U-Pass will automatically receive the post-secondary student discount when travelling on GO Transit with the same PRESTO card. There is no need to apply for the discount if you have received a U-Pass.
Spring/summer 2025 passes have been distributed!
Be sure to keep an eye out for DRT's spring/summer service changes beginning Monday, May 5, 2025.
