I stayed at the Days Inn by the airport. The airport is maybe 15 minutes from the school so you shouldn't have any problem. Also the airport didn't seem very busy when I was there (early december) and I would bet it is even less busy this time of year. I think you will enjoy the school. Good luck on the interview.

The airport is at most, 20 minutes from the dental school. I've traveled in and out of the Buffalo airport too many times to remember and it is never busy. The longest line you'll maybe have to stand in is 5 minutes. You will have plenty of time. If you leave the school by 3:45, you'll be at the airport with enough time to check in before your flight.

The Travelodge is located at the intersection right across the street from the university, it is walking distance - like a 7 minute walk because there is a big intersection to cross and a long walk across a big parking lot and up a hill to get to the school. The dental school is the building with the red trimmed windows, can't miss it.

Good luck!

Griffen04 has set you on the right track. The airport is at most 20 min away from just about anywhere in Buffalo. The cab cost me ~$17.50, but on the way back I met this chick at a bar and after she put me up for the night, she was nice enough to drop me off the next morning (can't beat that price). Stay at the Travelodge but be prepared to walk in the freakin' cold to campus if you didn't rent a car. I took my snow boots and changed into my suit at the school. (take a right in front of the Travelodge, and cross the street just after McDonald's, watch out as there are no crossing lights and you have to pay attention; then walk across the parking lot veering to the right (diagonally); you'll end up at the school before long).

I had to wait at the airport on Saturday morning what on account of the blizzard, cancelled flights, and a bunch of idiotic travelers trying to rebook onto nonexistent flights. But... that seems to be rather atypical.
