TCC Eastgate, Stata, and Westgate are all located on the main MIT campus. To view the precise location of any of these buildings, please visit the MIT main site's campus map and type the building name (Eastgate, Stata Center, or Westgate) into the search box. Note: TCC Westgate is located on the ground floor of the high-rise building (Building W85) within the Westgate group of buildings.
MIT's main campus is located in Cambridge, near the Charles River. You can reach the campus on foot, via public transportation, or by car. Each on-campus TCC center has drop-off and pick-up parking (15 minutes maximum). TCC Eastgate parking is in the Sloan parking lot, TCC Stata parking is in the lot off Vassar Street, and TCC Westgate parking is in the Westgate visitor parking area.
Public transportation – MBTA ("the T")
Take the Red Line subway to the Kendall/MIT Station, which brings you to the eastern side of campus. From here, it is a short walk to either TCC Eastgate or TCC Stata.
Public transportation – Bus
The #1 or Dudley/Harvard Station bus runs along Massachusetts Avenue and stops at the MIT campus. The MIT stop is at a large crosswalk with a stoplight. On one side of the street are steps leading up to large Ionic columns and the Small Dome of MIT; on the other side of the street is the Stratton Student Center and Kresge Oval (an open, grass-covered area).
Additionally, the CT1 (Crosstown bus) stops at the MIT stop on Massachusetts Avenue, and the CT2 bus stops on the corner of Massachusetts Avenue and Vassar St., as well as at the Kendall Square T (subway) Station.

If you are heading south on I-95, take the I-93 South exit (exit 37), then follow the I-93 directions below. Alternatively, take the I-90 East exit (Massachusetts Turnpike) from I-95 South, then follow the directions from I-90.

By car from the West (I-90) (Mass Turnpike)
Follow I-90 East to the Cambridge/Brighton exit (exit 18). Following the signs to Cambridge, cross the River Street Bridge, and continue straight about 1 mile to Central Square. Turn right onto Massachusetts Avenue and follow Massachusetts Avenue for about a half mile. The main entrance to MIT will be on your left. If you cross the river again, you have gone too far.
By car from I-93
From I-93, take exit 26, and follow the signs to Back Bay along Storrow Drive West, approximately 1.5 miles, to the exit for Route 2A. The exit will be on the left, just before the Harvard Bridge (more appropriately called the Massachusetts Avenue Bridge). The Charles River will be on your right. As you cross the bridge, you will be looking at MIT - the Great Dome and academic facilities are on the right, the dormitories and athletic facilities are on the left.
