Many of our graduate students live in the University City/Loop

staying near the airport or in a hotel near a Metrolink station (St.
Louis' light rail public transportation system). The main campus of
the University of Missouri - St. Louis is located in North St. Louis
County and is easily accessible by Metrolink.
