到来

The 全球参与中心 (CGE) wants to ensure that your arrival at Indiana State is both safe 和 comfortable. If you are a new student, you should make all your housing 和 airport pickup arrangements 之前 你到. If you are a visiting scholar, make arrangements 和你的部门赞助人 安排接机服务. 

机场到ISU的交通

The nearest passenger airport 到特雷霍特 is 印第安纳波利斯国际机场 在印第安纳州的印第安纳波利斯. This about a one-hour drive from 泰瑞豪特. 开车 directions 到特雷霍特 from the Indianapolis Airport can be found at: MapQuest (Note – Chicago O’Hare 国际 Airport is approximately 3 ½ hours from 泰瑞豪特; because of this distance, the CGE is unable to provide airport pickup services for those new students arriving in Chicago. Please plan to make Indianapolis your final destination if you are in need of airport pickup services).

If you are a new student, the CGE provides 有限机场接机服务 之前 new student orientation of each semester. New students will be contacted by email 之前 the beginning of each semester regarding the dates 和 details of these pickups. 一些 国际学生组织 at ISU also provide limited airport pickup to new students. 有关这些拾音器的信息, look on the appropriate ISA website or contact the ISA representative. The CGE can also assist in communicating with each ISA. All airport pickup arrangements must be made 之前 arriving at the airport.

不幸的是, the CGE 和 ISAs are unable to pickup all new students due to the large number of students. In some cases, new students will be responsible for transportation to the university. 其中一些选项是:

At the Indianapolis Airport, you can take a 出租车 到特雷霍特. The cost of this 出租车 ride is approximately $120 to $140. For information on 出租车 service from the 印第安纳波利斯国际机场 到特雷霍特, 请访问黄页链接: http://www.yellowpages.com/indianapolis-in/taxis?from=ip5indtlod_taxis_taxi+in

灰狗巴士路线 还提供了 bus service between Indianapolis 和 泰瑞豪特; however, if you are a new student arriving with much luggage, 坐这趟车可能不太方便

If you are arriving during normal operating hours for ISU (Monday-Friday, 8:00 – 4:30 p.m.) 和 have a housing reservation, we suggest you first check in at the 住宅生活 办公室.

If you arriving after normal operating hours, ISU does have several temporary guest rooms available in the residence halls. 信息 about the location of these halls will be provided to new students by the CGE 之前 the beginning of each semester. 住宅生活 还能提供这个信息吗.
