Driving Directions

New Traffic Patterns

Use Loudoun County Parkway (Rt. 607), North. This is now the only way to access the Campus from Route 7 due to new traffic patterns in and around University Center. The two traffic lights near the Campus were removed in conjunction with the opening of the Route 7/607 interchange. All traffic to Campus uses the new Loudoun County Parkway (Rt. 607) interchange.

Please Note: Directions created using MapQuest and related programs and GPS devices are not accurate as the new interchange opened recently. The turn from Rt. 7 onto Presidential Drive no longer exists.
