Since the campus is at the crossroad between Ankara, Istanbul, and Izmir, intercity transportation is very fast. Apart from this, intercity transportation provided by municipal bus and underground services enables students to reach the campus from every part of the city. The General Directorate of Students' Credits and Dormitories administers dormitories, which provide facilities for 6000 students on campus.

With these facilities, Ege University serves the students and the public in terms of education, science, health, social, and cultural services. To extend these services, a West Campus was recently [when?] established in Çeşme.
