MBTA Pass Options

The most popular selection is the Link Pass, which covers both our rapid transit subway system (known as the “T”) and some of the local bus system. This pass refills automatically every month and can be replaced if lost. We recommend this one for most students taking the subway multiple days a week.

There are also options for express busses, the Commuter Rail, and the Ferry. Please research which option will work best for you and read each description carefully to ensure you are picking the right pass for you and your budget.

Picking up your MBTA Pass

The MBTA will send passes directly to the Student Affairs Office office shortly prior to the beginning of the covered period. You will receive an email when the passes are ready to be picked up, where to pick up, and what time. Passes will not be mailed to you.

Please note that all Commuter Rail and Ferry passes will need to be picked up at the beginning of each month, and cannot be replaced for that month if lost or stolen.

Questions about the MBTA Pass Program

For specific information or general questions about your personal commute, (routes, bus numbers, which T-line) please contact the MBTA. If you have questions about Suffolk's discount pass program or your pass purchase, please email Kevin Barthelemy, Associate Director of Off Campus Housing and Commuter Programs.
