Getting to Gateway
Getting to Gateway
Gateway takes place on our beautiful 2,600 acre campus located in Blacksburg, Virginia.
Driving Separately
Gateway is an admitted student-only program. Family members are responsible for securing their own accommodations and meals. A list of dining options and other campus activities taking place that weekend will be provided. If you plan to drive separately, please use our directions to Virginia Tech.
Bus Transportation
There is limited charter bus transportation for students (only) departing from Richmond, Hampton Roads, and Northern Virginia areas. Each bus will have an adult chaperone accompany the students. Please check back later for departure locations and times.
Whether you drive yourself or use the transportation provided, you must register for Gateway online. Registration will open mid-March.
