Fitzgerald Garage.
If you are traveling by bus,
The Charm City Circulator, Purple Line is a great option. It is free and easily accessible from the downtown hotels.
If you are traveling by train, the campus is adjacent to the
Penn Station, Baltimore train station. Both the Amtrak system and the Commuter Rail system called “MARC” are options. Both are easy to ride from Union Station in Washington, D.C. If you are arriving by train, you should arrive at Penn Station, Baltimore and then walk south on Charles Street one block to Mt. Royal Ave.
If you are traveling by Light Rail, the campus is conveniently located on
Baltimore’s Light Rail Line. Just go to the University of Baltimore/Mt. Royal Ave station. It has station stops at BWI Airport and downtown by the convention center and stadiums.
If you are traveling by plane,
Baltimore Washington International / Thurgood Marshall Airport (BWI) is the closest airport to campus. It is approximately 12 miles and 25 minutes away from campus.
