UPass update

[tsukikage]

Now I finally know which bridge it is! (The green dot is Coffman, the red is the bridge.)

Okay, good news: the UPass will be in the form of a Go-To card from fall semester on. (Although I will kind of miss the old card, if only because I have high levels of the nostalgia hormone, or something.)
The bad: "You can renew it online every semester that you qualify for up to six years." I got my first UPass either the fall of '01 (when I started the UMTYMP college courses) or '02 (when I started PSEO).Maybe they don't count semesters you didn't take any classes? *crosses my fingers* Not to mention I thought I'd get to use the UPass through the end of my PhD. :(

I'm pretty sure that means that you can renew that Go-To card for 6 years and then maybe have to get a new one?

Oh... I hope you're right. I'll have to ask them about that some time. Still, I wouldn't be surprised if it indeed means that you can only have a UPass for six years, since it is quite a subsidy the University's paying.

Eligibility
Any current registered student at the University of Minnesota who has a U Card and has paid the transportation fee is eligible for U-Pass.
