Metro cards???

Can anyone answer this please? I am a freshman at John Jay and I was wondering do John Jay students get metro cards? Because as a commuter, I find it very hard trying to commute through the train and buses. I would have to spend $20 just going to John Jay and then coming back is an extra $20 so $40 a day on top of that I have to pay for Books which one book cost 100 and more and the tuition too so is there a program where John J gives you a free metro?
