I wish I had known...
I would have waited to turn 21 to study in Boston. I sent my first year without being able to go out as a lot of pubs and clubs check the passport only before letting you go in.

All appliances are available easily, there is a really good internship provider network. I chose this university because they propose the internship program in an American company as credits.

Allston/Brighton are goods neighborhoods for students. I recommend the sharing flat solution. It is very common to live this way and it is great to live with american native person or international students. If you want to travel around, you can go to Cape Cod, Newport, or Rockport. The area is full of fisher villages. It is so cute. There are also great deals to go to New York City with Chinatown bus company and to go to Montreal for memorial day. Watch out!!!

Just a thing if you're staying for a long time, you may have troubles around the third month. What I mean about trouble is that you may feel unconfortable in the country, be fed up with everything! Don't worry, it happens to every one, the 3-months cap is always like that, there pretty nothing to do about it!

It would be better if the University interacted more with its students and helped us to find an apartment.

I lived in a very bad neighborhood, I would not reccoment to anyone to live in Mission Hill. My roommate got mugged twice, and had his nose broken. We also got robbed, I lost my laptop and other personnal belongings. So try and find a nice neighborhood. All in all, it was a great experience and I would do it again !

Housing
Type of housing: On campus
Arranged by: Host university
If returning, I would choose: Apartment/House
Why?
It's easier to be on campus for the first time you traval abraod, because it helps you a lot: you don't have to worry for a lot of things. I personnaly spent only a quarter in the dorms. First because it was quite expensive and then becauseit can be hard to really work efficiently when you're in the dorms. So i took an appartmeent out of campus (but still close) with 4 other students.

The place was ok, it was pretty clean, not great (especially for the price!!) but ok. My main problem was actually my roomate with whom I had no common interest!! But the experience was overall a good experience and I keep a good souvenir of it!

Boston is a nice city. It really European "Europop" as bostonians call the city!! So there are a lot of place when you can feel "at home" if you miss yur country, for instance just go to the sonsie on New berry and you'll feel like in London! But if you want to see some different palces you should go thethe Lava bar, it's a night club, with windows over the Charles river, the view is great! Or once a month you can go to the Villa Victoria, it's the name of a party organised in a Church, people are great, the music is very good and everybody always has a good time.

Boston is a student city, over 1/3 of its population are students. Great environment for students to study and work.

I am pursuing my Masters degree in Construction Management, the department of Civil Engineering is pretty cool. The professors are very knowledgeable and very helpful. Our department conducts happy hour for new students to get informed about the university by their seniors.
