Do you already have a personal MOBIB card? Surf to school.mivb.be and upload your registration certificate. You will receive a conformation mail which you will need to buy your season ticket at a GO selling machine or online. You can also go to a KIOSK of BOOTIK with your registration certificate in paper.

By train to the VUB

Do you take the train to the VUB? You'll need a transportation card by NMBS. If you're younger than 26, you have the choice between two season tickets.

The Student Multi are 5 journeys outbound and 5 return to be completed over a period of 49 days. This is mainly of interest when you take 2 or 3 trips a week. In many cases this is cheaper than a Youth Multi (10 rides with free choice of departure and arrival).
When you are enrolled in an interuniversity study programme and often travel between two universities, you can ask for a Student Multi for both locations on presentation of a certificate that you have classes in both cities.
A Student Season Ticket is an unlimited subscription for 1, 3 or 12 months for a fixed route. This is mainly interesting if you make 4 or more return travels each week.

Buses between Brussels and Flanders

Coming from Flanders by bus? A season ticket of De Lijn might be something for you.
