Plan a Visit

Need directions?

Getting to our campus is a bit complicated because GPS will not lead you here- it will take you to a different location. Therefore, use the GPS location for Great Lakes Metra station. We are one block south on Sheridan road, across the street. The address is 3000 S. Sheridan. Once you see the station keep driving south (in the direction of Lake Bluff) about one block. You will notice a black iron fence with a LEARN North Chicago sign. Turn into the parking lot and follow the signs.
