Public & Emissions-Saving Transportation
Campus Shuttles
Getting around campus by shuttle is easy, convenient and free! Our routes take students, faculty, staff, alumni and community members to all areas of campus, reducing or eliminating the need to travel by car.
Columbia's Public Transit System
The city's transit system, The Comet, can help students, faculty, staff, alumni and community members get around town without traveling by car. Better yet, new USC students can ride The Comet for free their entire first year if they sign up for a Free Pass.
