Commuting to SFSU
SFSU strives to be a transit-first and bicycle-friendly campus to help reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
As a student commuter, you will be able to get to SFSU efficiently and smoothly from throughout the Bay Area, whether by public transportation, bicycle or car. A light-rail station is located at the campus gate, and numerous public transit routes stop at SFSU every few minutes all day long.
All students receive unlimited rides on 22 transit agencies throughout the Bay Area during the fall and spring semesters. All they have to do is tap their SFSU ID card when boarding.
There are over 800 free bicycle parking spaces throughout campus.
The campus also has a multilevel parking garage and several lots available for students, faculty, staff and the general public. Faculty and staff are eligible for reduced rates and can utilize the Commuter Check program, which allows pretax payroll deduction for transportation expenses.
