Its only about 10 miles to the school from ontario. When I interviewed, I flew into LAX and rented a car. I think thats probobly the best way to go b/c cabs can get expensive.

I would be very careful with cabs in SoCal, we really don't use them and I'd imagine they are extremely expensive. If you can, rent a car. Or if you're staying with a current student, ask if they can help you out and give you a ride. If none of those...metro link to a bus/cab would work, you'll have to check the metro site, run a google search for LA and metro, that should get some good hits. Best of luck with it though, SoCal is not good for those without cars, it's gotten better, but you still NEED a car.
 
I suppose it depends on where you're staying while you're here, but from the airport, jump on I-10 east and go about 15 miles or so to Towne Ave. Take a left on Towne and then a right on 3rd St. That runs you right into the school. It usually takes me about 20-25 minutes on a good day without traffic (I live very close to the airport). I have no idea what cabs cost, so I'd say renting a car is the way to go.
