Public Transit

Public Transit

We do not suggest taking public transportation from O'Hare or Midway airports, as it takes twice as long and involves multiple steps. You need to take the Chicago Transit Authority (CTA) train from either airport to downtown Chicago, change trains onto the Metra train system from Ogilvie Station then ride the Union Pacific West (UP-W) line train out to Wheaton. If you are not able to drive from the airport, we encourage you to contact a ground transportation company for a more direct route or consider using a ride share option such as Uber or Lyft.

When contacting the companies below, mention that you are a conference guest of Wheaton College to qualify for any applicable discounts. Wheaton College does not endorse any specific company.
