The student discount for the Metra is GARBAGE. To be applicable for the student discount you must be a grade or high school student. This discount does NOT apply to college students. This may seem like it's no big deal, but let me tell you why Metra doing this is a very scummy thing for them to do.
Grade and High School students DON'T need to buy monthly passes to go to Chicago. College students need to buy monthly passes to go to Chicago.
If Metra gave the discount to college students they would make less money. By giving it to G&HS students they don't lose money, because they don't take advantage of it. This allows Metra to look like they're giving a discount to students, but not to the ones who will use it. This is why Metra is sleazy.

Metra is crap and I am sorry to hear of this undeniable bull. Yet, it doesn't surprise me that they're creating an illusion of giving discounts to "all" students. Three simple letters : WTF.
