HSR buss pass
It is my understanding that every student is charged $100 in suplementary fees for a HSR buss pass but I just received my sticker and there is no part on it that says HSR. I was wondering if there is any way I didn't receive a buss pass this year or if they just redesigned the sticker. Thanks in advanced for your help.

The full-time student sticker this year is indeed red but the HSR part should be light blue. As for not having the HSR part at all, that would only happen if you're a part-time student. My advice would be to check MUGSI to see how many courses you're officially enrolled in, then call up the registrar's office to get your sticker sorted out.

Anywhere the HSR does, plus a transfer 
You can use it to get onto any HSR bus, and if you're transferring to another city (such as Burlington), you just ask the driver for a transfer and give that to the bus driver on the Burlington bus. You only have to pay if you don't have a transfer and it's not an HSR bus.

It's not free but all undergraduate students pay ~100$ for 8 months of service (September 1st to April 30th) in their supplementary fees.

I live in Burlington, therefore I would only have to pay a small transfer fee, if that to take the bus to the Aldershot area, correct? Thanks for the reply |

Do they actually give you a transfer? I know in Toronto you can't get a transfer if you have a pass.
