Hey peeps! Quick question: Does Harvard University have a campus located in Boston? I really love the city, so it would be pretty cool to know. Thanks for the help in advance!
Harvard University's main campus is actually located in Cambridge, Massachusetts, which is just across the Charles River from Boston. The two cities are practically neighbors, and public transportation like the Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority (MBTA, often called the 'T') make it very easy to commute to downtown Boston.
Furthermore, some Harvard facilities such as the Harvard Medical School, the School of Public Health, and the School of Dental Medicine are located in Boston itself, in the Longwood Medical Area. If you choose to pursue studies in these areas, you will have a direct presence in Boston. Aside from academics, the proximity to Boston allows students to take advantage of the rich cultural scene, historical landmarks, and job opportunities in the city.
