Bow Valley College does not have a UPass due to the high use of transit by BVC students. At post-secondary institutions that have a transit pass, all students pay for the pass, but only 40 percent β 60 percent of students use the pass.
Projected transit use at Bow Valley College is over 90 percent. However, many students are eligible for a low income transit pass. You can find details on the pass here: https://www.calgarytransit.com/fares-passes/passes/low-income-monthly-pass
There are no fitness facilities for students on campus. SABVC is very much opposed to this and we will continue to advocate to the College on the need for fitness facilities for students. In the meantime, SABVC hosts regular yoga, dance and fitness classes for students!Β Β
