�����������’s participation in ’s Key Advantage UPass Program is aligned with the College’s deep commitment to climate justice, sustainability, and a vibrant student experience that allows students access to explore Philadelphia and all surrounding counties. This pilot program makes it easier for students to access the city of Philadelphia and surrounding counties by offering a free public transportation pass, the SEPTA Key Card, for use during the academic year. 

Your Key Card can be used anywhere on SEPTA’s network of subways, buses, trolleys, and regional rail lines during the fall and spring semesters — September through December and February through May. During those months, your pass will be valid at all times and on all services provided by SEPTA, with a 240-ride limit per month (8 rides per day). During off months — January, June, July, and August — your Key Card will still be active, but you will need to load your own funds if you wish to use it.
