FAQ

    If you plan to travel to Fairfield by plane, train, or bus, a free shuttle will pick you up at the airport/station and bring you back when the event ends.

    PLEASE NOTE: Shuttle service is unavailable if your arrival time to the airport/station is after 8:00 PM. If you arrive after 8:00 PM and still want shuttle service to campus, you must spend the night at a hotel near the airport/station, and the shuttle will pick you up the following day. With regard to your departure, our shuttles do not depart the campus before 8:00 AM. If your only departure option is too early, we can drop you off at a hotel near the airport/station the night before, or you may opt to spend an additional night at the MIU Guest & Conference Center ($80 per night, depending on availability) and take you to the airport/station the following day.

    Instead of taking the shuttle, you may find it more convenient to rent a car or arrange for a private driver to bring you to campus. A list of private drivers is available upon request.

    The best airports to consider are Cedar Rapids (CID – 1 ½ hours from campus) and Des Moines (DSM – 2 hours from campus). The nearest Amtrak stations are in Mt. Pleasant and Ottumwa (1/2 hour from campus each) and Fort Madison (1 hour from campus). Greyhound offers bus service to Fairfield.

    For any additional information, please contact our transportation department directly at: transportation@miu.edu.

    See our suggestions for places to stay within a few minutes of campus.

    For Visitors Saturdays there is a $10 registration fee.

    Yes, but the schedule of events is very full, and not all events are suitable for young children. It’s best to register someone to come with you to look after your child. Also, if you are staying at the MIU Guest & Conference center, please be aware that quiet hours are observed from 10:00 PM to 8:00 AM. Please inform us if you are bringing young children with you.
