Transportation
If you do not have a vehicle and you need to leave Student Housing or off-campus Housing, Fort Wayne provides public transportation options for students. The Citilink bus system runs many routes throughout the day that span across Fort Wayne. Monthly passes are greatly reduced in price for IPFW students. Campuslink is a division of Citilink that offers free transportation daily to IPFW students via one route that covers several apartment complexes, Student Housing, the IPFW campus, and several shopping centers located close to campus. All you need is your student ID to ride Campuslink. Below are links to more information about Citilink and Campuslink, including route maps.
