CharlieCard Pass $30 per month and automatically reloaded every month; [M7 Pass] enables a student unlimited travel 7 days a week on the Bus, Subway, Express Bus, and Commuter Rail Zones 1A, 1, and 2

CharlieCard monthly passes may be purchased upfront for the entire school year (September-June) or on a month-to-month basis. BUA will charge your family’s Smart Tuition account accordingly. Please be aware that MBTA passes are free of charge for all City of Boston residents as well as for those families who receive financial aid.

Students are assigned one card for the year so it is imperative that it is not lost or misplaced.
