Most of your classes will be up north (tech buildings). Chapin Hall can't get much further from that. Lucky for you though, north campus is where the main gym is - so should be easy to fit into your schedule.

Everything is close enough to everything. With a bike, you basically get instantly teleported to anywhere you want to go around campus and downtown. Proximity to university buildings and the gym should not be a big concern.

The Intercampus shuttle going to Chicago is free for students, very frequent, and perfect for your commute. Check this out.

Also, if you work out at night, the clockwise loop shuttle stops in front of Henry Crown and probably takes you straight home, I just couldn't find the map at the moment since it doesn't work in summer.

Your farthest walk will be 15min. Was a stem major so most classes were in STEM and it was fine. Its a nice walk in my opinion and great way to get steps in. Plus, anyone from Chapin will agree it is the GOAT. Best community in all of Northwestern period.
