Transit Services

• GoPass is a bus pass allowing the North Carolina Central community to ride GoRaleigh and GoTriangle buses at no cost.
  • A GoPass is not required to ride GoCary, GoDurham, and Chapel Hill Transit, as they remain fare-free.
• NCCU faculty, staff, and students can request a GoPass at no cost using an active NCCU email address.
• The pass is non-transferable.
• The GoPass will be deactivated when a faculty member, staff member, or student separates from the university.
