Travel
Local full-time undergraduate students
You can apply for a Tertiary Student ID card from Public Transport Victoria (PTV). This allows you to use a concession Myki ticket on trams, trains and buses, giving you a 50 per cent discount on travel throughout Victoria.
International students
You may be eligible for an International Student Travel Pass. This gives you 50 per cent off the cost of an annual Myki pass.
To apply, you will first need to get an International Student Travel Pass code. You can do this at the international counter at Swinburne's studentHQ or by emailing internationalshq@swinburne.edu.au. Once you have your code, you can use it to buy your discounted Myki pass from the PTV website.
Postgraduate and part-time students
If you have a current Low Income Health Care Card, you are eligible for a 50 per cent discount on public transport in Victoria.
