By commuter rail:
Commuter train service is available from Boston's North Station (Fitchburg / South Acton line) to the Brandeis/Roberts Station which borders the campus. Check MBTA commuter rail schedules for more information.

Once on campus, see the main road as basically a big circle, with a guard shack at the campus entrance that can issue parking passes. If you're driving, take the circular road to the right and follow it uphill to the top. The Schneider Institutes resides in The Heller School, which is at the top of the hill just as the road begins to drop downhill. The building is currently adjacent to a large construction site, which will soon be the new Schneider Building. Look for blue signs posted in front of buildings. Parking is on the right, across from The Heller School.
