Directions

Please consult our maps in conjunction with these directions.

The contest is held in the Kehr Union Ballroom. You will unload your equipment on Schuyler Drive above the Kehr Union. You will then park in the Mt. Olympus lot which is before our football field on Upper Campus. A shuttle will then bring you back to campus.

We will have signs that read Programming Contest Unloading to get you to the unloading zone at the Kehr Union. Signs that say Programming Contest Parking will take you to the parking lot. You may bring buses, vans or cars to campus. You will not need parking permits.

Driver Notes: The best route for most schools will be to exit I-80 at the LightStreet exit and take Route 487 South towards Bloomsburg. Take the first road (Penn Street) to the left after you pass the main entrance to campus. Make a left onto East Second Street and then make a right (gated road) onto Schuyler Drive. Once you unload you will follow the signs to upper campus to park. First follow the winding road from the unloading zone to the stop sign at Penn Street. Then make a right onto Penn Street. At the next stop sign, make a right onto Route 487 north. At the next red light, make a left towards upper campus and Nelson Field House. Head towards the Nelson field house and park in the Mt. Olympus parking lot. Bring a BU Shuttle back to campus. A student will be at Centennial Hall to direct you back to the contest. Centennial Hall should be the first drop-off for the shuttle on each run. The shuttle starts to run at 7:30 AM and has pickup areas you will see from the Orange parking lot. The shuttle pickup locations look like normal bus pickup shelters.

Please do not leave your car unattended while unloading. We need to keep this road clear. The signs that direct you to the unloading area may read uploading instead of unloading (oops).
