Getting Your Compass Card & U-Pass BC

Get your U-Pass BC in two simple steps:

  • Get a Compass Card from Translink.
  • Load your U-Pass BC onto your Compass Card.

1. Get a Compass Card

In order to access the U-Pass BC monthly pass, you will need to buy a physical Compass Card from TransLink.

2. Load your U-Pass BC

Once you have a Compass Card, load your U-Pass BC:

  1. Go to the U-Pass BC website.
  2. Select “British Columbia Institute of Technology” from the drop-down menu.
  3. Log in using your BCIT email address and password. You must be eligible for U-Pass BC to log in. Confirm eligibility on my.bcit.
  4. Link your Compass Card by entering the 20-digits and CVN on the back of your Compass Card.
  5. Request your U-Pass BC.
