"I had friends so I leanred the mass transit really fast so I learned to take the "L" and buses to union station and then a 3.70 train ride to belmont where you can get a taxi to the downers grove hotels for like 8-9 bucks. MUCH CHEAPER than the 30 one way ride. I also discovered downers grove is really busy as well and has almost everything you need around there....including some of the traffic as its 20 minutes to chichago WITHOUT traffic....usually an hour or so with."

"CCOM is a pretty cool school. I stayed at the comfort inn and it was 65 dollars a night. They also have a free shuttle till 5pm that will pick you up at the train station or take you to midwestern university. Also, the breakfast is good as well. Its clean. I had little to no knowledge of any of the area so that is good to know about future interviews. The school itself is fairly spreadout as it used to be an undergrad institution years ago. There were about 12 other students to interview as well so it was nice to have company. Few other facts about the school, it get fairly close there quickly as you probably already know but they measure in the windchill in the winter. Hope you like snow. Also, we saw the student dorms and they reminded me of undergrad dorms. THere are many apartments around but we were not given any housing information other than the "on campus" information. In all its a great school with great tradition associated with it. Lot of opportunities for 3rd and 4th years depending on the matches you get." Report Response
