Bus Transportation (OPUS CARDS)

IMPORTANT: At SLC the RTC/OPUS card is also your student identification card. Even if you do not use the bus sytem, first year students and new students, must have a bus card prepared.  The first few days of every semester, a photo session is organized. Please make sure you are available a few minutes for one of these sessions.

We are now part of the RTC Abonne Bus program where you  may purchase your montly pass online. Please refer to their website for more info. http://www.rtcquebec.ca/Tarifs/LabonneBUS/LabonneBUS%C3%89tudiant/tabid/603/Default.aspx

WILL YOU BE 19 YEARS OLD BY SEPTEMBER 30TH?

If so, your RTC (OPUS) card must be renewed. Bring to room 272 before 9.00 am Tuesday September 17 2013. If you are 19 years old or will be by September 30th, you must return your OPUS card. Your card will be "encoded" so you may keep purchasing your tickets at a student rate. This is free of charge but only happens once. Bring your cards to my desk in room 272 before September 18th at 9.00 am. The RTC will bring back new cards at the end of the day. For more info on this please go to RTC website:http://www.rtcquebec.ca/Tarifs/CarteOPUS/OPUSEtudiantplus/tabid/383/Default.aspx

Pictures will be taken for new students coming to SLC for the Fall 2012 semester:
* Info day for newly registered students  May 2012, the cards will be given to students on August 17, Welcome Day Fall 2012 (more info to come)
* Retake for students who missed the first photo session will be on Welcome Day August 17 2012. These cards will only be received by the college 7 to 10 business days later.
There is one last retake early September for students who were not available for the preceding dates.  After this students needing cards must go to the reception desk to fill-out the proper forms then  go to Pharmacie Brunet (Place Laurier) to have their pictures taken.

At SLC first year students have their picture taken on Welcome day for the RTC/Student ID card.  This card is emitted the first year of cegep and is used for the two or three years of cegep studies.   Should you need to have it repalced or it is lost, please go to the reception desk to fill-out the replacement form. There is a fee to be paid at the reception desk for replacement of the ID card.   For more info: http://www.rtcquebec.ca/Tarifs/CarteOPUS/OPUS%C3%89tudiantplus18ansetmoins/tabid/287/Default.aspx
