Visitors to Golden Gate University School of Law (GGU Law) are encouraged to use public transportation due to its location in San Francisco’s Financial District.

Three major airports serve the San Francisco Bay Area: San Francisco International (SFO), Oakland International (OAK), and San Jose International (SJC).  SFO and OAK are most convenient to GGU Law because they provide direct access to San Francisco, using Bay Area Rapid Transit (BART), the subway system. From SFO, the commute takes about 30 minutes via BART. From OAK, the commute is about 40 minutes. You will exit at the Montgomery Street BART Station, and GGU Law is less than a 5-minute walk.

Taxis, shuttle vans, and ridesharing, such as Lyft and Uber, are also available from both airports.

If traveling by car,

• From the North Bay (Marin County): Golden Gate Bridge/Highway 101 south to Van Ness Avenue. Turn left on Bush Street, cross Market Street to First Street. Proceed one block to Mission Street. Turn right on Mission Street and proceed one-half block to 536 Mission Street.
• From the South Bay (San Jose/Silicon Valley), Highway 101 to I-80 north (Bay Bridge/Downtown) to Fourth Street exit. Proceed one block on Bryant Street, turn left on Third Street, turn right on Mission Street, and proceed two blocks to 536 Mission Street.
• From the East Bay (Oakland), Bay Bridge west to the Fremont Street exit. Turn left on Fremont, then left on Mission Street, and proceed one block to 536 Mission Street.

By Taxi, Uber, Lyft, or Airport Shuttle

Taxi fare from:

• Midway Airport to campus is approximately $25–$35
• O’Hare Airport to campus is approximately $50–$70
• Downtown to campus is approximately $15–$25.

Taxis are readily available at both airports. If you need to request a taxi, please keep the following information handy:

If you need a taxi to pick you up from the Law School, you must call in advance. You should give them the Law School address (1111 East 60th Street).

You can also use the Uber app or Lyft app to request a ride to and from the Law School and other locations throughout Chicago.

Airport Shuttle: If you are downtown, you can easily get to the Law School by using public transportation; however, using public transportation to get to the Law School from either airport can be difficult as you will need to transfer modes of transport somewhere downtown. You may want to contact Omega Shuttle at 773-483-OMEGA (773-483-6634) or www.omegashuttle.com. Omega has designated stops at the University and around Hyde Park. Another option is Continental Airport Express at 888-2TheVan (888-284-3826) or www.airportexpress.com. If you plan to use one of these services, you should contact them before arriving in Chicago.

By Bus or Train

The Law School can be reached using the Chicago Transit Authority’s (CTA) public bus and train lines, as well as the Metra commuter train.

The base fare for a trip on a CTA train is $2.25 and a CTA bus is $2.00 with up to two transfers permitted within two hours for an additional $0.25. We recommend that you purchase and load money onto a Ventra card or pass (the CTA’s transit card) so that you can take advantage of the reduced prices for transfers. To learn more about how to use the CTA or to plan your trip, please visit www.transitchicago.com.

Fares for a one-way ticket on the Metra commuter train run from $3.75 to $8.00 depending on the time of day you plan to travel.
