Translink is set to drop concession Go Cards for tertiary students for a new online system starting Friday.

A document sent to Fairfax Media outlined the changes, which will see south-east Queensland tertiary students unable to buy concession Go Cards as of April 1.

Instead students will need to buy an adult Go Card and apply for a student concession online.

In the TransLink ticketing advice document it was detailed that tertiary students will also be unable to buy paper concession tickets.
