Transportation
How do students get around?
Upon Arrival:
The nearest airport is the Nashville International Airport (BNA) and it is over one hour away driving from Cookeville. There is a shuttle service that you can arrange to pick you up when you arrive at the airport no matter when your flight arrives and take you to your assigned housing directly:
| Upper Cumberland Shuttle Service | ucshuttles@gmail.com | 931-447-8277 | $150 one way cash or credit card. |
You can also use Uber (between $115-$150) or a Taxi (approx. $151). We do NOT recommend
taking a Greyhound bus when you first arrive because you would have to take a taxi
to get from the airport to the downtown bus station which is a dangerous area of Nashville.
Then upon arrival in Cookeville, you would have to take another taxi to get from
the bus station to the dorm. The least expensive option would be the UCHRA shuttle
(listed below), but they only run Monday-Friday, 3 times per day.
