There's more to Boston than the Red Sox, John Kerry, and what you've seen in “Good Will Hunting.” While the neighboring town of Cambridge houses the world-renowned Harvard University, Boston schools serve a healthy dose of Ivy League-caliber education – and a city full of culture and excitement to match.
The Waterfront area, which runs along the Inner Harbor, is where you'll find Boston's famed marinas, so this is a great place for those wishing to get their feet wet in marine biology. Given that the area is also home to the New England Aquarium and whale-watching expeditions, you can also find plenty of hotels in the Waterfront area, and therefore plenty of hotel and restaurant management experience.
Boston was home to the Democratic Convention last year for a reason. Specifically, the area known as Government Center is home to state and federal offices as well as City Hall –maybe even a budding politician like yourself – so long as you keep your hands clean! Nearby you'll find the Massachusetts General Hospital and Boston's Financial District, the banking, insurance, and legal center of the city.
Politics, finance, insurance – isn't there any fun to be had at Boston schools? Head to Kenmore Square, where you'll find more than your fill of shops, restaurants, and clubs, and many students from Boston University.
Likewise, Boston's Back Bay area is home to many a student. Once a landfill, the area is now only filled with chic shops. Nearby Huntington Avenue has been dubbed "Avenue of the Arts” thanks to the Christian Science Center, Symphony Hall Northeastern University, and the Museum of Fine Arts, a perfect area for those looking to pursue an education in the fine arts at a Boston school.
