Boston College Law Student
Hello! I am an entering Boston College Law Student and I will move to Boston in mid-August. I have several questions about this move and I am seeking advice and recommendations from anyone who can help. All comments/posts are welcome!
Right now, I am looking into the graduate housing provided by BC (I have lived in graduate housing and furnished housing before...both were great experiences with lots of benefits). However, there are still many things I would like to know:
1. Car--Should I bring a car if I will be living in the Brookline/Newton area? I understand that parking is very expensive and the public transportation in Boston is great and extensive (unlike my present location in the American South). I have no problem living without a car, but if a car is highly recommended, I would really like to know.
2. Location--What are the recommended areas for living for BC Law students? I am not interested in an "undergraduate enclave." I would love a reasonable, urban, pedestrian-friendly neighborhood that offers easy access to the BC Campus (by foot, "T", shuttle, or bus).
3. Graduate Housing--For those of you who may know anything about BC's graduate housing, what do you think of this option? Do you recommend something else?
As I mentioned before, all advice, recommendations, and comments are welcome! Thank you in advance.
