Okay this might sound funny, but...where is Harvard University at? I mean, I know it's in Massachusetts somewhere, but like which city? Is it in Boston or no? Just for my wild Ivy League dreams, you know?
Harvard University is located in Cambridge, Massachusetts, which is just outside of, but very close to, Boston. In fact, it's often associated with Boston because they're so close together. The campus sits right along the Charles River which separates Cambridge and Boston. So while it's not technically in Boston, it's within an easy commute, giving students access to all that the city has to offer. Keep chasing those Ivy League dreams!
