Housing

Housing during the June - August academic sessions is available on campus in co-ed or single-sex dormitories. The cost of on-campus room & board for the 2009 summer session was $3,300. Limited off-campus housing is available through private arrangement. (The school regrets that we do not offer housing to accommodate animals.) During the field work internship sessions, housing arrangements must be made by students; costs vary by region.

Other Expenses

Other expenses students should anticipate include transportation from the school to field work internship assignments, rent, food, utilities, and health insurance. Miscellaneous fees, books and supplies average approximately $3,100 annually.

In estimating total expenses for the second field work internships, students should anticipate the expenses of data collection, manuscript preparation, and copying of the research project.

 

Health Insurance

Health insurance is mandatory in Massachusetts (G.L. c.15A, § 18) for all full-time students. Students are advised to consider enrolling in the school's health insurance plan. Students who elect not to enroll in the school's plan must have coverage under another plan that meets the requirements of the Student Health Insurance Plan (SHIP) of Massachusetts: www.state.ma.us/dhcfp. Students who have their own coverage must provide the school with the following information:

  Name & address of insurance company
  Policy number
