Transit & Transportation
Consider how you will get from your home to your campus. Ensure that the distance and location reflect your ideal mode of transportation (walking, cycling, busing, driving personal vehicle).
Halifax Transit
Several transit routes pass through, or next to, our university campuses including Routes 1, 4, 10, and 24. As well, they operate ferries from Dartmouth to Downtown Halifax.
UPass
If you鈥檙e a full-time student in Halifax, UPass, a pass for Halifax Transit, will be included in your student fees. The UPass sticker is placed directly on your DalCard. Show your card to ride Halifax Transit buses and ferries, as well as Community Transit buses, from September to April. If you are taking summer courses, you may also be eligible for a summer UPass from May to August!
