What would you like to see/do during your two weeks in Los Angeles? Are you able to rent a car rather than having to rely on public transportation? Are you planning on arriving before your student moves in or after? He/she will have plenty of activities planned the first couple of weeks of school so you may not be traveling to campus as much as you think. Other than move in day, convocation (Aug 19 at 9 am) is an event that many parents attend. Some (but not all) departments have parent receptions the evening before convocation but those have not been announced yet.

Here is a map of the Metro Rail in LA. You can see that there are a couple of lines that drop off close to USC. Some hotels offer shuttles to Metro stations. If not, Uber and Lyft are options. My personal choice would be to stay in the South Bay (ex. El Segundo, Redondo Beach, Torrance) but those cities are farther away from some of the typical tourist attractions in Los Angeles.
