		Oh no specific reason   . I just don't believe that's an "application" it's literally a tiny square with your name, birthdate, and signature >.<

		"McMaster University is not offering on-campus processing and distribution of  	GO Transit ID cards for the 2009-10 school year.  	 GO Transit will now accept photo identification cards issued  	by McMaster University to its full time graduate and undergraduate students".

Does this mean our McMaster student ID can replace the Go Transit student ID?

 I called Go Transit and the guy had to go to his supervisor.  They say they will give me a call when they figure it out... They didn't supply a time, but hopefully it's today.

 I'm sure it would be more appreciated if it turns out we can just use our student cards XD.  I really hope that is the case!
