Transportation Tips
Airports to fly into:
Easterwood Airport - College Station,
TX
While tickets are often more expensive when flying directly into
College Station, with careful shopping you can sometimes find
fantastic deals. We encourage everyone to investigate this option
first.
George Bush Intercontinental Airport - Houston,
TX
William P. Hobby Airport - Houston, TX
Driving time to College Station is approximately 2 hours from
either airport in Houston. However there is a great shuttle service that you
can use. They will get you to College Station for only $26.99/

Dress
Recommendations
The weather in January can range from dry and 80˚F to wet and
20˚F, and anywhere in between. We recommend dressing in layers as
some labs are inside and some are outside, and we can never
predict the weather in Texas. The website will be updated with
weather predictions as wetlab approaches, so check
back!
For the labs closed toed shoes are REQUIRED and coveralls are
highly suggested. Many of the labs use fresh cadaver specimens and
even the live animal labs can get VERY dirty.
Don't forget to pack something to wear to Northgate if you plan
on attending Night Out at Northgate! Whatever you would normally
wear to a bar is fine, but this bar has a great dance floor where
there will be lots of two steppin'!
