Getting Around

Lake Forest College, only 30 miles north of Chicago, basks in the city's cosmopolitan glow and is easily accessible by mass transit.

Getting to the city is as easy as jumping on a Metra train in downtown Lake Forest, sweeping you into the city in sixty minutes.  From there you can dine in one of Chicago's diverse neighborhoods, participate in an internship, wander the home of the skyscraper, or jump on an elevated train that will wisk you out to O'Hare Airport and the world.

We have listed to the left the most common methods of getting to and from Lake Forest, Chicago, and both national and international destinations.  We have also listed many ways students and faculty get around Chicago itself.
