StarTran Bus released a statement on October 4th that everybody riding on the city bus would need a bus pass or would have to pay the bus fare.
As a University of Nebraska–Lincoln student, you receive a mobile bus pass. The pass is provided at no additional cost as part of the student transit fees fund. The mobile pass can be downloaded to your phone and displayed when boarding a bus.
StarTran bus service, provided by the City of Lincoln, connects City, East, and Innovation campuses. The pass is also good for all StarTran routes across the city.

• Enter your NU identification number (Appears on N Card, lower left corner, in the white area).
• Provide your name and email address if you choose.
• Click the “Register for Pass” button.

• Use the "Text a Link" to your phone and install the app.
• To activate the bus pass on your phone, select the app and enter your phone number. A code will be sent to you to complete the activation.
