Jefferson/USC station is a ground-level light rail facility on the E Line within the Los Angeles Metro Rail network. Positioned adjacent to Flower Street where it crosses Jefferson Boulevard, the station derives its name from both the boulevard and the nearby University of Southern California (USC). It provides interchange options with the J Line of the Los Angeles Metro Busway; southbound buses halt on Flower Street directly across from the station, while northbound services stop on Figueroa Street, located one block to the west. Jefferson/USC station primarily serves the North University Park district.
Opposite the station lies the Galen Center, which hosts USC's basketball and volleyball events. This station is expected to play a key role in transit during the 2028 Summer Olympics, offering convenient access to USC venues such as the Galen Center for badminton competitions and USC's University Village, which will accommodate the Media Village and Main Press Center.
