Airports
The Stanford campus is roughly equidistant from San Francisco (SFO) and San Jose (SJC) airports. We do not recommend using the Oakland (OAK) airport due to distance of the ground transfer.
Unfortunately neither airport is conveniently linked to Stanford via public transportation; we recommend Uber/Lyft for ground transfers.
