Housing

On-Campus housing provided by Bethel University is available. Reservations for on-campus housing must be made when you register for the event. Please note that there is a limit of 250 housing placements available. Bethel University is located at 1001 Bethel Circle, Mishawaka IN 46545.

Rate is $40/night for a double occupancy room with a shared restroom. On-campus housing is very much in the style of band camp. You will be staying in an empty dorm room with a shared restroom and while the facilities are well-maintained, this is not an experience comparable to a hotel stay. The University will provide bed lines, towel, wash cloth, and access to the exercise facility on campus. You will need to provide your own toiletries, including hand soap, and might consider bringing an additional pillow, towel, and /or blanket for your comfort.

Bethal Campus Building

Prefer to stay off campus?

We recommend the Hampton Inn & Suites as they have offered Conn Selmer Institute attendees a special rate of $89 per night. Visit their website to learn more about amenities. Please make your travel arrangements soon to lock in the special rates, which end May 10th, 2023. To book a room at the Hampton Inn & Suites and receive the $89/night rate, please call their front desk at (574) 243-4600 and mention that you are attending Conn Selmer Institute.

Another alternative is Holiday Inn Mishawaka - offering a special rate of $99/night. Call their front desk at (574) 272-8000 to make reservations.

Limited shuttle service to and from campus to the hotels is provided.

Transportation

Bethel University is located in the South Bend-Mishawaka Metropolitan Area. To help you navigate your arrival and ground transportation, we’ve gathered a list of resources.

Airports

Two airports serve the Mishawaka area - South Bend International Airport and Midway International Airport. The South Bend International Airport is a short 20-minute drive from Bethel University. Midway International Airport is approximately an hour and 45 minutes from Bethel University. If you would prefer to fly into Chicago, Midway is your best option. Please keep in mind that Chicago is on Central Time and Bethel University is on Eastern Time as this will impact travel plans.

Shuttle Services

Limited free shuttle service will be provided to and from the airport, Bethel University, Hampton Inn, and Holiday Inn Express. Please note that this is limited by the schedule posted – if your travel plans and accommodations are outside the scope of our service, we encourage you to make ground transportation plans in advance as Mishawaka is a small town.

Private Transportation

Mishawaka has a number of convenient ground travel options available.
