Travel to Madison
If you are flying to Madison, you will arrive at the Dane County Regional Airport, located about 7 miles from campus. Taxi service from the airport to campus is approximately $10 one-way.
We recommend simply writing down your address on a piece of paper and handing it to the cab driver at the airport. That way you can avoid any miscommunication! You can also ask
Madison Friends of International Students (MFIS)
to pick you up at the airport.
If you are flying into Chicago's O'Hare Airport, you can take the Van Galder bus to Madison. Van Galder buses depart daily, every 1-1½ hours, between 6:30 AM and 10:30 PM. The fare is $24 one-way and you can buy your ticket from the bus driver or online. The bus journey from Chicago to Madison takes four hours, as the Van Galder stops in several smaller towns before it arrives in Madison.
Once in Madison, the bus will make two stops. You'll want to depart at the second Madison stop — the Memorial Union. After you arrive at the Memorial Union, you can either take a taxi or walk to your place of accommodation. Please let us know if you have any questions about your arrival.
