Do STM students have off-campus jobs?

Yes! 许多STM学生通过校外工作来增加收入!  波士顿地区有许多不同的就业机会, 从食品服务到医院和精神卫生机构.  而校内工作只允许学生每周最多工作20小时, often only during normal office hours, off-campus employment can be a good option for flexible hours.

What type of housing and living options are available?

The city of Boston and its surrounding communities offer an array of housing options. Although the STM does not offer on-campus housing, we do all that we can to provide support throughout the process, including helping students find roommates and local listings. Boston College is located 6 miles from downtown Boston, so many STM students live closer to campus where rents can be less expensive than in the center of the city.

Graduate students are also welcome to apply to be Resident Assistants for Boston College.
