  • Just one pretty compact campus, which I really like, actually.
  • All kinds of facilities are available; literally, you name it, from the library to makerspace to all kinds of sports, pools, and gyms. Different clubs. Medical and mental health consultation.
  • All cultures are celebrated so all the cultures have different groups. The major thing celebrated is wellness mental health days every 7 weeks and all the Indian festivals are also celebrated.

  • I opted for off-campus accommodations.
  • I found it with the help of a relative and different websites like apt-finder and willow.
  • It was challenging to find an apartment because you cannot come and see what you're signing up for. You can always contact seniors and ask if they've got space in their house or if anyone has, they can tell you. WPI has an off-campus Facebook house hunt group as well.
  • I would like to recommend students definitely find a walking distance house from WPI as it gets harsh in winters. And find a house with a good heater.
  • My accommodations were a 7-10 minute walk from campus so it was pretty close. Most of the Indian students live in the same neighborhood.

  • Off-campus, already has friends and their support was present. 
  • Monthly rent was 800$. This included heat and water. 
  • The challenge of budget friendly accommodations near university was there.
  • Join whatsapp groups, use fb marketplace and you will get the best deals.

  • I found my accommodation Through an app called Yocket, from there I got links for some whatsapp groups.
  • Monthly expenses include many things as listed below (per person) - Rent, electricity bill, water bill, WiFi bill, Laundry, groceries, Transportation. Everything in total would be around 1000 US dollars. So, this expense would be there for every month. 
  • It was difficult to find vegetarians and the places were very bad with rats and cockroaches. Most people never used to reply.
  • Mission Main is a very good place to stay, it is safe at night. Police and ambulance will be going around this area. It is very nearby University and also near to train station, grocery stores, and bus stand.
  • I live in Mission main and it is 10 mins walk to the university. Most of the Indian students live in an apartment called Jvue.

  • I found my accommodation via a broker named StudentLandings Inc.
  • Monthly expenses include rent and utilities (electricity, gas, and wifi bill). Rent costs around 530 dollars, and utilities cost around 70-80 dollars max per month. Facilities only include all the in-unit appliances like microwave, dishwasher, oven, Washer and dryer.
  • We didn't face any challenges while finding accommodations; as such, everything went smoothly.
  • Do look out for accommodation mainly in the Mission Hill area, as the utility bill there is free of charge and its very close to the university. Also, the neighbourhood is very safe and lively.
  • I don't have any transportation costs as there's a free bus ride on the route where my house is located. And on top of that, my house is just 1.3 km away from the university, which is pretty convenient.
  • Most Indian students stay in areas like Roxbury, Mission Hill, Fenway, and South End. These are places that are near the university.

  • There are total 13 Campuses, where Boston campus is the main and Vibrant one. While the competitive work environment (co-op hustle) is real, you will appreciate the rooftop library views, complimentary gyms (Marino Center!), and engaging events such as Howler.
  • The city boasts over 400 clubs, including SASA’s Diwali celebration, hackathons, and Quidditch. While socializing may require effort, Boston offers an abundance of opportunities for recreation. If you miss home, there is even a samosa study group for those who need a taste of Indian culture.

  • The Graduate Students doesn't have On-Campus accommodation option. But, Northeastern offers off-campus house searching facilities. 
  • I found my first accommodation through Northeastern Housing groups, where each day the messages are piled up with accommodations for students. 
  • The monthly rent varies depending on the place. If you find a place near University, it will cost more than $1000 for private room and $700 for shared room. 
  • I stayed in a shared room where I paid $625 including utilities (Water, Gas, sewage) and there will be additional utility charges (electricity and Wi-Fi).
  • I would say check in the Northeastern Housing groups for accommodation, which is the easier way, and also, check in Facebook pages for accommodations.
  • My accommodation is 0.8 miles away from University, and it is a place called Roxbury, where most of the Indian students stay, because of less monthly rent, easier bus service access.

  • I found my accommodation on AirBnB.com and Craigslist. 
  • I paid around 800$ for a single-bedroom, 4-room apartment. It included an attached bathroom.
  • I found it challenging to get a fully furnished apartment and an apartment with reduced prices.
  • I would certainly recommend checking Airbnb and probably reaching out to realtors one-on-one for apartments or even if you can shed an extra few dollars, please get yourself an on-campus accommodation. Do not solely rely on lessor advertising their property on Craigslist. Be extra cautious.
  • It is not that far. It is like 3 miles away from the college campus.Indian students mostly stay in the vicinity of the campus for ease of commute.

I didn't live in the dorms but the city of Boston is itself very costly and the college is in downtown so the costs are very high near the college.

Plenty of space on campus to sit and work. Has a Wi-Fi facility everywhere. You'll see some or the other activity happening on campus throughout the year. Very lively atmosphere. Ample research and sports activities, too.

Living costs are on the expensive side since it's Boston. People usually share rooms to cut down costs.
