For those of you attending the Visit Weekends, please make your own flight/travel arrangements. Hotel accommodations will be handled through our office. Please note that we will not be hosting any individual visits, so it is very important that you sign up for one of the Visit Weekends as early as possible.
Visit Weekends 2010
The Visit Weekend schedule is as follows:
The Weekend runs from Thursday evening to Saturday afternoon. We recommend that you arrive by 5pm on Thursday to join our students and other prospective students for dinner in Pasadena. Friday is the day for main events where you will go on lab tours, meet with individual faculty, have lunch with our students, attend poster sessions, and follow by happy hour and dinner with faculty and graduate students. Saturday schedule is relatively informal, with activities such as hiking or museums that will allow you to see the LA area. Lunch will be provided.

Airport Information and Ground Transportation
Two airports are convenient to Pasadena, Los Angeles International
Airport (LAX) and Burbank Airport (BUR). Burbank is about
20 minutes away and is more convenient, but has limited service.
LAX is approximately 45 minutes to 1 hour from Pasadena.
When
you arrive, we recommend that you take Supershuttle (blue/gold
vans). This company serves the entire LA area. At LAX, Supershuttle
can be found at the VAN stops on the traffic islands located
outside of baggage claim at each terminal. At Burbank, Supershuttle
is also located at a traffic island outside the terminal.
Dispatchers will be there to call in a van to Pasadena for
you.
