Services/Resources

Commuter Ambassadors
Our CA team is an experienced Suffolk University student who is a key member of the Office. The Commuter Ambassador helps first-year students transition to college life and mentors students who commute to campus.

Free Lockers
Store your books and other school supplies on campus. Lockers can be located in the 150 Tremont first-floor hallway on the left (Commuter Student Lounge). These lockers are for single time use and are on a first come first serve basis. If you would like a more permanent locker more locker information is available at the department of facilities. Contact them at 617-573-8110. Locker information for Law Students can be found in the Law School.

RAM Account
The Ram Account is a stored value/debit account linked to your Ram card, which is your Suffolk ID. Ram Account funds can be used at all participating on- and off-campus locations, and they are available as long as you are an active member of the Suffolk community—commuter and resident students, faculty, and staff. Students and parents can now add funds to the Ram Account. For more information, email us or call the Student Account/Ram Card Services at 617-573-8407.

Discounted MBTA Semester Passes
By purchasing a semester t-pass through Suffolk, you can save 11% percent when compared to purchasing a monthly pass directly through the MBTA.
