There have been changes to the Non-Lift ORCA Program starting Summer 2016 regarding the process of obtaining, renewing your Non-Lift ORCA card, and subsidies. Please see below for key changes.

Please note that Transportation Program Policies are subject to change at any time.
Launched by King County Metro in 2015 and accepted by Sound Transit, the ORCA LIFT card is a reduced fare transit passed for eligible riders. Seattle University supports this program and will subsidize half of the total cost to students who secure a Seattle University-associated ORCA LIFT.
Students are responsible for paying half the total cost and Seattle University will subsidize the other half. Subsidies will be loaded on to the Orca LIFT card as E-Purse value. It is the student's responsibility to convert E-Purse to monthly pass. Orca limits the maximum E-Purse balance at $300. The University matches qualifying subsidy requests up to $81 per quarter and $108 for the semester. If the University subsidy would cause your E-Purse value to exceed the maximum Orca balance, those additional funds will be forfeited.
Note: If you live outside of King County, please view here for more pricing information.
Note: This ORCA LIFT card is not associated in any way with Seattle University's former ORCA card program. Please visit the links below for additional information.
Please note that Transportation Program Policies are subject to change at any time.
Disclaimer: Any subsidized transit product offering is subject to change with fare prices of transit agencies participating in the ORCA program. Current and past product offerings do not represent products that Seattle University will offer in the future.
Any and all projects are subject to the $300 e-purse limit established by ORCA. If Seattle University is unable to load product due to e-purse limitations, the remaining product that would exceed that balance is considered forfeit on the last day of the relevant quarter or semester.
