for the majority of my college career, I rode the bus 1.5 hours each way to get to school and back home. I just recently got a car and I still ride the bus most of the time because of habit and lack of money for gas. the car was given to me, BTW, just in case anyone was wondering why on Earth I would get a car and can't afford gas. It's a 17 yr old gas hungry thing.
I am not in nursing school yet but when I did my prereqs I did not have a car. At one campus I would ride my bike 45 mins each way. The other school I rode my bike 15 mins and then took the bus for an hour. Now I have a car! However I think I would prefer to commute by bike if I can coordinate it with the times daycare opens and my classes start.
Car, bike, or bus. Depends on my mood and the weather. I used to be completly dependent on the bus and that was horrible. I thought I could use the time to study but I get horribly car sick if I try to read in a moving vehicle. I also get bus sick if the ride is longer then 45 minutes, especially in the back of the bus.
My car is beat up 18 year old corrolla but I love it! I also love my bike. :)

With student loans growing how do you get to and from school? Do you have your own car? Live on campus? Take the train? A friend?
