Location

For the 2024-2025 school year we have limited transportation requests to the Airport or Train Station. Please see the availability below.

Train Station Transportation is available upon request for:

• All scheduled home leaves

• Christmas Break, Semester Break, and March Break

• Summer Break (End of school year)

YYZ Airport Transportation is ONLY available upon request for:

• Christmas Break & March Break

• Summer Break (Start/End of school year)

Departure and Arrival - Appointed Times

• Departures need to be made for the two days leading to the home leave or break. No transportation is to be arranged a day or more into the home leave or break.

• Arrivals need to be made for the last day of the home leave or break or the returning day from the home leave or break.

• No nighttime (8pm - 8am) or Sabbath drop-off or pick up.

• Transportation is provided according to our department’s capacity and on a first-come, first-served basis.

Step 1: Fill in Request Form (At least ONE week prior to departure)

The transportation request forms are found below (bottom of page). If you are requesting a drop-off AND a pick-up, you will need to fill the Request Form twice: one for each of the transportation requests. Transportation Request forms close one week prior to the break.

Step 2: Fill in an Absence Form (AF) from the Records Office

According to the time you will be leaving campus you may need to fill out an Absence Form (AF). This form MUST be filled out if you will be:

1. Missing classes before the Home Leave Weekend starts (i.e. leaving on a Thursday, or before classes end on Friday)

2. Missing classes after the Home Leave Weekend ends (i.e. arriving the morning of when classes start or later than that)

 An EAF must be completed and submitted to the Records Office in order for you to receive a confirmation for your transportation request. 

Step 3: Pay transportation fees

Contact the Business Office to make payment at least 3 days before. If transportation is scheduled on time, within the available days and hours, and transportation can be arranged then there are no fees.

For any other instances, if transportation can be arranged, the fees will be $60 for Oshawa/Whitby Train/Bus and $150 for YYZ Pearson Airport.

Step 4: Receive Confirmation of Pick Up via Kingsway Email

The Records Office will confirm with us if they have received an EAF from you. Once the EAF is completed and received, the Enrolment Office will send you a confirmation email on your (student’s) Kingsway Gmail account. 

Step 5: Be ready for your pick up time!
