About U-Pass Opt Out:

For Spring Term 2026, the CTA has provided U-Pass-eligible Loyola students the option to opt out of the U-Pass program and fee if they choose to do so.

This link will only be open to students who meet the U-Pass eligibility requirements outlined here: https://www.luc.edu/upass/u-passactivation/eligibilityrequirements.

If you meet those requirements, you will have the option to opt out of the U-Pass program and fee for Spring 2026 only. If you choose to opt out, your U-Pass will be inactive for the entire Spring Term and you will receive a waiver for the U-Pass fee. Please note that this will be a waiver of a fee, not a cash refund. It is important to be aware that this waiver can only be requested once, and the request is final: you cannot later ask to have the fee reapplied or the U-Pass activated for Spring Term 2026. Please be sure of your choice before requesting the waiver.

Since this is a final choice, keep in mind that you can request a waiver until the deadline of 1/26/2026. For Graduate School of Business students, this site will remain open until Wednesday, 2/18/2026. The site will be closed for all other students and attempts to request a waiver will not be honored after 1/26/2026 if you are not a Graduate School of Business student. If you think your circumstances or transportation needs may change, please wait until you are certain of your final circumstance before requesting the waiver.
