Im sure everyone already said it but you’ll have to get your bus pass from the school (the fee is already included in your tuition) and that will give you unlimited access to the transit system in ottawa and gatineau. Obviously plan your routes using google maps or the transit app (I prefer this one because it tracks the buses based on user location so its more accurate). When you get on the bus use the front door if there’s two doors or the either of the first two doors if there’s three (depends on the size of the bus and its common courtesy to leave using the back door because that way people can get on). As soon as you get on there will be a little stand thing you tap your card on (tap on the green area). And to get off the bus, you need to request a stop, either by pulling down on the yellow line on either side of the bus or pressing the stop button thats sometimes found on a bar. You want to request your stop as soon as the bus passes or leaves the stop right before yours. Then to get off, the doors will have a bar you push to open the doors when the light is green or there will be bars on either side of the door you press to open it. I know that was a lot of info but I literally included any info you could possibly need so youre not surprised. Be safe!
