> Does the school also pay for public transportation for people who don't drive?

Frequently enough, yes, it does.

The University of Michigan runs free shuttles from central campus to north campus. They don't check student IDs either, anyone can ride them.

Which is good. This is what you want in a developed space.

Your own temporary rental space of ~8*12 feet is a luxury. Riding on a bus or bike is not. The latter options should be accommodated with low or non-existent fees.

There are schools that include passes for local transit in their tuition as well. CU Denver did it when I attended about a decade back, and San Francisco State started doing it recently as well.
