GO transit has bus service that goes from York University to U of Guelph but this trip is expected to last 2 hours. Also, you would need to transfer at York University to either VIVA purple or take GOs Highway 407 east service to RHC or Unionville GO. You're looking at least a 2.5+ hour commute should you excersice this.

If you can find a way of getting a Watcard from Waterloo (eg. taking Waterloo courses in a double degree, etc), Fedbus goes to Richmond Hill Centre Terminal, one-way is $11 and round trip is $20. 3pm leaves Davis Centre on Friday and 7:30pm leaves Richmond Hill Centre Terminal on Sunday.

Thanks, but this seems to be the toughest path lol

U of Guelph? So how do I go from Laurier to Guelph?
Thanks again.

I heard about this too, but its too bad that I dont have a watcard.
I have friends at waterloo, do they check the watcard precisely or is it one of those 'show and go' kindda stuff?
Thanks again.

What about taking the greyhound?

i normally take the greyhound, price one way is about 14.50. Decent timing to get down to downtown terminal and then ttc it up to fairview or something. There's a greyhound that stops right beside Laurier so you can catch those on fridays and the ride will be 1.30hrs long. If not you'll have to get down to Ainsle station for a probably longer ride to union.
