International students: save money on public transport with this travel pass!
There are so many great places and attractions to visit while you’re a Deakin student, but we know that travel costs can add up quickly. The good news is that you can save 50% on public transport across Victoria with the International Student Travel Pass. Over a year, this could save you up to $890!
Funded by the Victorian Government and Deakin, you can buy a discounted statewide, Zone 2-only or regional zone myki pass that gives you unlimited travel on buses, trams, and metropolitan and V/Line trains for 90, 180 or 365 days. Find out more about Victorian metropolitan and regional travel zones.
You can use this pass to travel to and from campus, go out with friends, and travel to some of Victoria’s most beautiful locations and attractions.
How to apply
To be eligible for the pass, you must be an international student who is enrolled in a full-time undergraduate course at Deakin. You can buy the pass at any time – it will be valid from the time you first touch on your myki.
To apply:
- Complete our online form – you’ll need your student ID and Deakin email.
- Check your Deakin email for your International Student Travel Pass code (this may take up to three business days to arrive).
- Visit the International Student Travel Pass website to register your details and buy your pass. You’ll need to provide a passport-style photo.
If you’ve used the pass before (it was previously called ‘iUSEpass’), you’ll still need to apply for a new code from Deakin. Then, just log into your existing account, select ‘Renew pass’ and enter your new code.
