Students in the International Programs and Partnerships (IPP) are met at Los Angeles International Airport (LAX) and assisted with transportation to Northridge.
Request Airport Assistance
Airport assistance service from Los Angeles International Airport (LAX) is available on a pre-scheduled basis. To schedule airport assistance contact IPP Housing at ipphousing@csun.edu.
After you have booked your airline ticket (the arrival date should correspond with the check-in date on your housing contract), contact us. Please read the dates below carefully to be sure that your flight arrives at LAX on the designated IPP airport assistance day and time for your academic term.
NOTE: You must contact the IPP office at least six days before your flight. On the designated IPP airport assistance day (as indicated below), an IPP office representative will meet you at Los Angeles International Airport (LAX) and assist you with transportation to the Northridge area. Please note that you will be responsible for paying for the transportation costs.
If traveling to Northridge from LAX, the cost is approximately $40-$45 per person, but you can print a discount coupon (PDF). You may also schedule your own assistance and hotel.
Please note: If you arrive before 9 a.m., please wait for our representative at the information booth in the Tom Bradley Terminal.
We will not be able to meet you if your flight arrives at the airport after 2 p.m. on the designated IPP airport assistance day.

The following list of airport assistance services and hotels is intended to help IPP students find convenient travel and lodging options while en route to or from Northridge. Neither CSUN, The Tseng College, nor IPP endorse these particular businesses; others providing the same services are available.
Airport Fly Away Bus
Note: The Van Nuys FLYAWAY Bus picks up outside of each terminal at LAX, under the Green signs for 'FlyAway Buses & Long Distance Vans’. IMPORTANT: Los Angeles has six FlyAway stations, so you must read the sign on each bus to check the destination. VAN NUYS FlyAway is the closest station to CSUN. The Van Nuys bus goes directly (non-stop) from LAX to the Van Nuys FlyAway station. From the station, you can take a short taxi ride to CSUN (or other local destination). The taxis are located outside of the Van Nuys Flyways station.
Limousine Services
Upon arrival, collect your luggage and proceed outside. Look for the overhead orange Shared Ride Vans sign and wait for the van or car operated by the company you scheduled to assist you.
If you are staying in CSUN housing, give this address to your van driver: CSUN Housing, Building 6, 17950 Lassen Street, Northridge.
