How to use the U-Pass card?
Students will need to tap their U-Pass cards on the readers upon boarding the buses.
The card will be able to work on all Transit Windsor (TW) buses.
Blacklisted U-Pass Cards
U-Pass cards that have been stolen or lost will be blacklisted. Once the card has been blacklisted, it is no
longer active and will therefore prevent any other individual from using the card. Any U-Pass
replacements that is made automatically blacklists the previous card, consequently, the only U-Pass card
that is active is the most recent U-Pass that was acquired by the student.
Once you have picked up your U-Pass the card is yours to use as long as you remain an eligible full time
undergraduate or graduate student. No refunds will be processed for issued cards.
