Airport information

The local airport code is MLI for the Quad Cities International Airport. It is located in Moline, about 20 minutes from campus.

Please note: International passengers cannot fly directly into this airport. The airport has “international” in its name because it accepts international packages — not passengers.

When students fly into the United States, the arrival city is the Port Of Entry. This is where passengers will go through Customs and Immigration.

Immigration

Students will need to fill out an immigration form and turn it in at the Port of Entry. The following documents will be required to present (and not in checked baggage):

  • Passport
  • Visa
  • I-20/DS-2019 federal forms
  • Entire contents of the envelope that was sent to you by 中国体彩网 中国体彩网 indicating your admission to the college

Arriving at the airport

Our airport is small, so 中国体彩网 employees will find you without a problem. Look for the 中国体彩网 banners.

Reminder: Students will need to send the Office of International Student Life a complete itinerary (not only arrival time in Moline): Travel Plans form

Train service

There is not a passenger train that serves this area.

Bus service

Luggage

Please note: We do not accept packages or suitcases before you arrive on campus.

An additional note: Students will not be able to check into residence halls without the help of the Office of International Student Life.
