<p>I'm an international student visiting Colgate on 11th-12th.
The only flight I could get drops me in Syracuse on 9th, so I have get to Colgate on my own and spend two nights on my own.
Is there a nice public transportation from the airport to Colgate? If I have to take a cab, how much would it cost me?
and about the lodging... Is there a guesthouse on campus? Or if I have to stay at a hotel in Hamilton, how much does it cost?</p>
<p>The colgate site tells all about transportation and accomodations in the area. Or call the admissions office and they will help you with your stay.
Congratulations!</p>
<p>Call the admissions office and ask to stay with a student. Students are more than happy to host prospective students!! (for free, meals on campus are on the school’s dime). You’ll get much more out of a visit this way by experiencing real Colgate.</p>
<p>Cab is, I think, about $50 one way from the airport to Hamilton. But you might be able to ask for a ride back to the airport from a student who has a car and has 2 spare hours the next day and would like to earn some cash ($20 is usually the norm).</p>
