A new Go College card is being introduced for students attending the Isle of Man College of Further & Higher Education.

IoM Transport has changed the appearance of the Go School 3 card in response to students’ feedback. Any students with an old Go School 3 card should exchange it free of charge at any card issuing station before term starts. Old Go School 3 cards will not function from September. The new Go College cards and Go School cards will be available from 10 August 2015.

Children moving up from primary to secondary school can exchange a Go School 1 card for a Go School 2 card free of charge. Unused journeys can be transferred onto new cards at the Welcome Centre.

Unused journeys on school cards that are no longer required can be refunded from Tuesday 28 July until Friday 5 September. A 4R form should be completed and taken to the Welcome Centre in Douglas Sea Terminal to receive cash refunds.

Children travelling between their home and IoM Government-run schools and college courses can travel for 25p per journey with a pre-paid Go School or Go College smart travel card. Those travelling to school without a card or at other times will have to pay the standard fare. Please note, Go School cards will not be accepted as proof of age to obtain half fares outside of school journeys.
College students aged 16-19 can use the new Go College card with their college ID for concessionary fares to and from the Isle of Man College of Further & Higher Education and, like older students, can obtain half fare bus travel on production of their college ID outside these times.
