UBC will distribute monthly passes from the 16th of every month.The Carding Office at The UBC Bookstore, the main reception lobby at Robson Square and the main floor at the Student Union Building SUB have been outfitted with high-speed vending machines that will speed up on-site distribution. Swipe your UBCcard at the machine which will confirm eligibility and then issue your pass.
At TransLink’s request, the new program conditions have strict limitations on pass replacement, and provide no resolution for passes reported lost in the mail. The risk to students is too high for us to distribute passes in the mail.
You have until the 15th of every month to pick up your pass from the vending machines. Starting on the 16th of each month, machines will begin dispensing passes for the following month. After the 16th, passes for the current month will be available from staff at the Carding Office desk or the information desk at Robson Square.
UBC has installed high-speed vending machines to make distribution as efficient as possible. Passes will be available starting on the 16th of each month. Students are encouraged to pick up their passes as early as possible.
The UBC Bookstore is open six days a week, Monday – Saturday. Hours of operation will be extended during peak seasons at the start of fall and spring terms. Robson Square is open seven days a week, Monday – Friday 7:30am – 10:00pm and Saturday and Sunday 7:30am – 5:00pm. The Student Union Building is open seven days a week from 7am until midnight.
