Shuttle Service

The Student Health Services provides a free shuttle service for students without cars that need to get to an off campus medical appointment. The shuttle is also for disability on or off campus.

This is a student driver generated shuttle, and the schedule is subject to change each semester. For best scheduling results, call Student Health Services at 630-765-0016 before scheduling the doctor’s appointment to check on weekly driving hours.

SHS Shuttle/Disability Van

The shuttle service does not run on holidays, campus breaks, finals week, or during the summer. Reservations should be made 24 hours in advance, if at all possible. Please call ahead to cancel reservations so that others may utilize that time for the shuttle service.
