Directions & Gate Access
The Symposium is being held at NWC’s Wargaming headquarters, McCarty Little Hall (MLH). Directions to NWC from Boston, Providence, and from the south are located in the tabs to the left. GPS street addresses are included as well. Please use the addresses provided to ensure you aren't taken to a closed gate.
Attendees with current (please check!) DOD-issued Common Access Cards should have no problem entering the Naval Station with your valid rental car paperwork. Attendees without a CAC card will require an added level of communication and coordination. Feel free to contact CDR Brandon McCauley to facilitate this.
ALL attendees will need to be on an access list to gain entry to the NWC campus, which will be provided by the NSS coordinators prior to your arrival. If you have any trouble getting through the NWC gate, call the MLH Quarterdeck (401 841-2474).
Upon arrival on NWC’s campus, go directly to MLH’s parking lot; do NOT go to the main Naval War College Quarterdeck. There will be signs directing participants to designated parking areas. Parking directions for Distinguished Visitors will be provided separately. See the Directions page for greater detail.
