Campus Shuttle
Campus Shuttle
  • SNU operates free shuttle bus services for the convenience of its members. There are four types: Off-Campus shuttle, On-Campus Circulation shuttle, Library shuttle and the shuttle for students with disabilities. Shuttle schedules are published through mySNU before each semester begins and can be found from SNU mobile app, too.
Off-Campus Shuttle
  • Off-campus shuttles connect Gwanak Campus with SNU subway station line #2 and Daehak-dong, a local area where a number of SNU students reside. These shuttles run from 7 am to 7 pm during weekdays, except for the 2nd Engineering Building-bound one which runs from 8 to 11 am only. This time schedule only applies during the regular semesters. For summer and winter break time, service time is limited to mostly daytime.
  • SNU Subway Station ↔ Gwanak Campus
    • 1) Campus center-bound, Administration Building (Bldg. 60)
      Two shuttle buses depart from SNU subway station, line 2. One shuttle bus takes you to the Administration Building (Bldg. 60) of Gwanak Campus. The shuttle stop at SNU subway station is located about 100m from exit #3 (in front of a cosmetics shop called the saem, i.e., the farthest shuttle stop from the exit #3). This shuttle will take you to the campus center near the Administration Building (Bldg. 60).
      In order to return to the subway station exit #2, board on the shuttle at the same spot you got off (bus stop 4-1 in front of the green field in front of the Administration Building, the stop closer to Cultural Center (Bldg. 73) )
    • 2) 2nd Engineering Building-bound (Bldg. 301 and 302)
      Another shuttle departing from SNU subway station line #2 goes to 2nd Engineering Building (upper Engineering, Bldg. 301 and 302). Its stop is located about 50m from exit #3 and stops at College of Agriculture and Life Sciences and College of Engineering (lower Engineering), too. This shuttle does not run in both directions, so if you want to go to the subway station from Bldg. 301 and 302, you have to take a local city bus or take the on-campus circulation shuttle and transfer to the off-campus shuttle from the Administration Building (Bldg. 60).
  • Daehak-dong (Nokdu) ↔ Gwanak Campus
    You can take the shuttle in front of the convenience store 7-ELEVEN (near Seoul Polytechnic School), which will drop you at the Administration Building (Bldg. 60) stop as well. Boarding the shuttle at bus stop 4-1 (the stop closer to Student Center (Bldg. 63) ) will take you back to the Daehak-dong stop. Off-campus shuttle buses run from 7:00AM to 6:30PM every Mon.-Fri. throughout the semester. Separate time schedules assigned for Summer/Winter Sessions are announced at those times.
  • Naeseongdae Station ↔ Gwanak Campus
    The shuttle departs in front of China Dang near Inheon Elementary School’s main gate between 8:30 – 11:00 am but does not run during the Summer/Winter sessions. It will drop you at several stops near College of Engineering, including the Gwanak Residence Halls and 2nd Engineering Building (Bldg. 301 and 302).
  • Sadang Station ↔ Gwanak Campus
    The shuttle departs in front of TIRE BANK which is 350m from exit #4 of Sadang subway station. It runs between 8 – 11 am and drops you near the Administration Building (Bldg. 60 ).
On-Campus Circulation Shuttle
  • On campus, you may choose to get around by on-campus circulation shuttle buses. Many students take this shuttle after arriving at the main gate by local bus or airplane limousine bus.
    There are two on-campus routes: The main one is circulating the campus counterclockwise, following the boundary of it. This route includes 18 bus stops starting from the main gate of SNU and ending at the College of Business Administration (Bldg. 58 ). During the academic year, this shuttle bus runs from 8 am to 9 pm, while services may be limited during the Summer/Winter sessions. The interval is every 6 minutes (20 minutes interval between 7 – 9 pm).
    For the opposite direction, clockwise shuttle runs every 20 – 60 minutes. This shuttle starts from the 2nd Engineering Building in the clockwise direction and when it reaches the Gwanak Residence Halls, it takes a short detour from the residence halls to Hoam Faculty House (near the rear gate) and goes to upper Engineering again.
Library Shuttle
Library shuttles take students who study until late night to either the subway station or Daehak-dong. You can take the bus right in front of the Administration Building (Bldg., 60) from 9:10 to 11:10 pm, every 30 minutes. The left one among two waiting lines heads for Daehak-dong and the bus on the right side goes to SNU subway station. Destinations of the library shuttle buses are the same as the off-campus shuttle buses that run during the daytime.
Night Rescue Shuttle
This shuttle is mainly for students who stay in the 2nd Engineering Building (Bldg. 301, 302) after the midnight. It runs from 0 – 2 am for every 30 minutes and departs from Bldg. 135, stopping at Bldg. 301, 302, 38 and College of Agriculture and Life Sciences, College of Natural Sciences, Main Gate, College of Business Administration, College of Veterinary Medicine, GSIS and Gwanak Residence Halls and takes you to Nakseongdae (near Inheon Elementary School) and SNU subway station (exit #3). This shuttle does not run during the Summer/Winter sessions.
Shuttle For Students With Disabilities
SNU provides special free shuttle buses for students with physical disabilities. These buses are equipped with wheelchair lifting devices and an assistant will accompany. The route will be decided every semester after considering the size of the user group and each individual’s destinations. In order to take advantage of this bus service, fill in the application form at the SNU Center for Students with Disabilities (Student Center, Bldg. 63, 1F ) before the semester starts. You can also schedule the shuttle bus for one-time use by contacting the center at +82-2-880-8787.
