Students can use the monthly MTA All Access College Transit Pass for unlimited travel on MTA local Bus, Light Rail, and the Metro subway. It must be purchased every calendar month; the cost is $39. The MTA All Access College Transit Pass cannot be used on MARC train service (see Student Advantage program information for MARC discounts). You can purchase the MTA All Access College Pass at the University of Baltimore Bursar's Office in the Academic Center.
UB has teamed up with the MTA to offer a benefit to all regular employees: the MTA Commuter Choice Program. You can sign up for MTA transit passes or vouchers using pre-tax salary deductions. This means that the cost for transit passes is deducted from your paycheck and you do not pay income tax on the amount deducted.
Please submit any questions to hr@ubalt.edu.
Sign up forms can be found here.
