Supporting Commuter Options for a Diverse Community
Penn supports discounts for public transportation use by faculty, staff, and students. Penn's compact urban campus is well served by an extensive network of subway, bus, regional rail, and trolley lines that are located around the campus where public transit stops are never more than a five-minute walk from any part of campus. Penn offers several options for discounted travel via SEPTA, PATCO, NJ Transit, and Amtrak.
