Getting Around Rush Hospital Campus: A Comprehensive Guide

Rush University recommends attending information sessions to get familiar with the campus before taking a tour. These sessions are available both online and on-campus, and one guest can accompany a RUSH student, faculty member, or staff member for free. Additionally, RUSH Security's shuttle service, known as the RUSH Night Run, operates from 6 p.m. to 6 a.m., Monday through Sunday, serving areas close to campus.

For those who prefer public transportation, there are several options available. The Divvy bike-sharing stations located near Rush's campus provide an eco-friendly and convenient way to get around. Inbound and outbound buses stop at Harrison and Paulina streets in the morning, while PACE Route 755 offers weekday rush-hour service between Plainfield and downtown Chicago.

RUSH University is also conveniently accessible by Metra commuter train. If you take a train to either Union or Ogilvie stations in the Loop, you can transfer to the RUSH shuttle, which will bring you directly to campus. For those who prefer to drive, there are several parking options available. The RUSH day shuttle operates from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m., making stops at both the Tailor Lofts student apartments and the UIC parking garage.
