Nope.
If I recall in 2007 some people got into some pretty hefty trouble with McMaster Security Services for trying to sneak into Metric (the area had some huge barriers). Just sayin'.

If you buy your Mac Pass on the move in days during Welcome Week, you can use cash. |

Actuallyyyyy, they said they weren't sure if they were going to do cash this year.

The last day to get a MacPass is Sept 6, which is the 2nd and last move-in day. So whenever you're moving to your off-campus apartment, you have to get it on or before that date!

Hey, so I think somebody asked this before, but I'm not sure if it was answered or if I just got confused, so I'm gonna ask again: are upper years even allowed to buy Mac Passes?
thanks

Credit card is two "NEW" and they dont have the technology. ( my credit card requires a pin number instead of signing for it )

The new credit cards with the chip can also be used as an old credit card with no chip in it as long as it has that swipe bar at the back.

You don't but you have to provide your card number, expiry date, card holder name and card holder birthday. Basically everything you have to provide with an old credit card. I've made purchases online with my credit card before and it has the chip.

There should be a security-type pin on the back that you type in. Someone clarify. 
EDIT: I think you have to input your CVV number. https://www.asprs.org/application/cvvnumber.htm on the purchase form along with the things that Jeremy said.

Oh right, I almost forgot about that.
There are numbers in a box at the back of your card. You also have to provide this information along with all the other information I stated in my last post.
