Directions and Parking
The UMGC office is located in the Kleber Education Center in Building 3245, Room 316 on the top floor.
To find our location, please take Autobahn 6 (A6) until you see a list of white signs for U.S. military kasernes. Continue to follow these signs until you come to a traffic circle. At the traffic circle, go straight until you reach the traffic lights. Go straight through the lights and you will pass a Marktkauf store on your right-hand side. Once you pass this store, you will see a Kleber Main Gate sign straight ahead. From the gate, take the first right. At the stop sign, take the first left. Continue ahead and you'll reach Building 3245 on the left.
Parking is available next to and behind Building 3245.
