It’s a free ride. Try it!
Mass transit is about to get a lot more accessible for ACC students and employees. In January 2010, ACC will begin a pilot program to provide free Capital Metro passes for all students, faculty, and staff. The initial cost of the program will be covered by the increased parking fees that went into effect for fall 2009.
How do I get a Green Pass?
- Register for spring 2010 classes.
Students who are enrolled in spring 2010 classes are eligible to get a Green Pass, as are faculty and staff. Spring registration begins October 12 for current and former students, November 9 for new students.
- Starting January 5, 2010, go to your campus cashier’s office to get a pass.
Bring your ACC ID to your campus cashier’s office and you will be given your Green Pass. January 5 is the first day you can pick up your pass – and you can begin riding at no charge that same day.
- Ride, ride, ride!
ACC students and employees may use Capital Metro bus service (and rail service, when it comes online) at no cost to them. You must have your Green Pass and swipe it when you board. Spring 2010 Green Passes are good through 5/31/10.
