Residential Experience

òòò½Ö±²¥E students come from all over the world. Most students live on campus, however we also allow students to commute from home. The convenience of being near the libraries, and other academic facilities, along with the social and educational opportunities afforded by residential living contributes to the total value of the summer program. Boston College Experience students are housed in a traditional residence hall on the Chestnut Hill campus.

Packing List
