<p>DS will start undergrad this fall. I want to open a bank account for him to which I can make periodic money transfers. My personal bank (PNC) doesn't support online transfer to US Bank (I don't know why, they do support other banks). Does anyone know of any other banks with convenient ATMs around Evanston campus?</p>
<p>Bank of America has an ATM at 1711 Sherman, I believe inside the CVS.</p>
<p>Most major banks are in Evanston - Citibank, Chase, etc.</p>
<p>Chase in downtown Evanston. Chase is #1 in terms of ATMs and branches in the Chicagoland, so I’d recommend Chase.</p>
<p>My kid uses the Citibank in downtown Evanston. We do exactly what you are proposing, make transfers into his account from our NY branches.</p>
<p>We have Citibank and my S uses the Citibank branch - I think it’s at Sherman and Church. Very convenient. I would imagine most major brands have a branch in downtown Evanston.</p>
<p>OP - there’s a PNC on Chicago Avenue. It’s about 2 blocks from south campus. Problem solved!</p>
<p>Yes, Pizzagirl, I am going with PNC! My son’s top dorm choice is Willard - if he gets that, PNC will be quite close.
Thanks for your suggestions, everyone!</p>
<p>The PNC would be a very easy 5 minute walk from Willard! Good luck to your son as he begins his life at NU! My son is a rising junior and we can’t believe how quickly it’s all passing. It’s been better than I could have ever dreamed for him. (I’m an alum, as is my H.)</p>
<p>Thank you! We are excited for him!!</p>
