SEPTA Student Fare Card Program

The SEPTA Student Fare Card is available to secondary students on a voluntary basis, provided that you are currently assigned to a bus for your transportation needs.

Here's some pertinent information about the SEPTA Student Fare Card Program:

  • The SEPTA Card is valid for use on all trolleys, buses, and regional rails.
  • Students can tap their card to a validator pad located on the vehicle to gain access to the card.
  • The Fare Card allows for up to 7 daily uses, permitting transfers.
  • It is operational between 5:30 AM and 8:00 PM on school days. The card will not work on holidays and weekends.
  • In case of card loss, a replacement card can be obtained for a fee of $10.
  • The SEPTA Fare Card remains valid for the entire school year, with a new card issued for the subsequent school year.
  • Each Fare Card is linked to a specific student and the Card is not transferrable.
  • You can find information regarding SEPTA trolleys and buses here.
  • Students should be aware that participation in the program will result in their removal from school bus services for the remainder of the school year.
