You are encouraged to consider taking classes offered at the Mount Vernon Campus. Please keep in mind that traffic and weather conditions affect the operations of The Vern Express, the shuttle service connecting the Foggy Bottom and Mount Vernon campuses. The one-way trip typically takes 10-13 minutes, although on weekdays from 7:00 am to 10:00 am and 3:00 pm to 7:00 pm, during the rush hours, the one-way trip may take 15-20 minutes. As such, at all times you are encouraged to allow yourself at least 30 minutes to travel between the campuses and to your classroom, as students have found doing so usually allows for an on-time arrival for class. For complete information on The Vern Express, visit Mount Vernon Campus Life.
