Student Author OverviewWhat's This?

There’s no need to worry about transportation at Marquette. Not only is the campus and surrounding area compact enough so that most destinations are within walking distance, but MU also supplies every student with a U-Pass at the start of each fall term. This pass allows unlimited, free bus transportation all over the Milwaukee area—the Milwaukee County Transit System provides transportation anywhere from down the street or out to the next city. Also, the University manages a system of student-driven van transports known as L.I.M.O.S. (Local Inter-campus Mobile Operation Service). It serves as an alternative method of transportation for students and travels anywhere within a 10-block radius of campus, which is especially useful during the winter months. But regardless of which method you choose for getting around, both services are free of charge and extremely valuable.

When getting around the immediate area, students definitely get good use out of the ever-so-popular Milwaukee County Transit System, Marquette’s own L.I.M.O. service, and taxi cabs, but students looking to get out of town have options, as well. The Greyhound bus, Amtrak train station, and the General Mitchell International Airport are all nearby. Whether you’re traveling near or far, it’s all cheap, easy, and convenient.

Limos Are Important

As far as on-campus transportation, the school offers a transportation service for students called LIMOs. They run from 5pm to 4am, and are really convenient for students who don't want to walk alone at night or long distances, or whatever reason. The only bad thing about them is that sometimes you end up waiting up to 40 minutes for the LIMO to come

Convenient

busing is convenient and free and can get to lots of places. The shuttle on campus is great. Once in awhile you have to wait for a shuttle, but I always feel safe.
