Hi there,
Due to business reasons I will have to travel to San Francisco and fortunately I will have an entire day to spend at Stanford campus. Since I would really like to apply to Stanford MBA some time I want to make the most of my visit. The options that Stanford offers for people who want to visit the campus are the following:
- On Campus Info Session: a general overview about the program. I have already attended Off Campus sessions when the Admissions Committee travels once a year to my country, so I don´t know how much different this would be.
- Knight Management Tour: a 30-minute tour led by students
- Class Visit: well, the name is self-explanatory...
- Campus Walking Tour: this is a general tour for the school (not related to the MBA specifically). It is aimed at tourists, I think.
My questions (especially for people who have done these stuff) are:
1- Assuming that I may have time to do at least 2 (maybe 3) of these options, what do you recommend me to do?
2- Could anyone advise me on the fastest way to get from the airport SFO to Stanford and how much time that would take? I would assume taxi is the best option but please let me know.
Thank you so much!!

Hi,
I don't know about visits and can't recommend anything on that.
2- Could anyone advise me on the fastest way to get from the airport SFO to Stanford and how much time that would take? I would assume taxi is the best option but please let me know.
But I can suggest an alternative to taxi considering you are willing to travel by local train.
You can take a BART(bay area rapid transit) https://www.bart.gov/ from SFO airport to Milbrae station and catch a Caltrain https://www.caltrain.com/ to Palo Alto.
It is fairly simple and cheaper option compared to taxi, but can't guarantee about the time it takes sometimes its quicker depending on train timings.
