<p>Daughter will be a firstie in September–asked me to pass along these questions:</p>
<li><p>What bank is either on campus or in town? Since we already live in MA, maybe one of our regional banks will suffice.</p></li>
<li><p>How are work-study jobs determined? Is there a sort of job fair, or is there some other method?</p></li>
</ol>
<p>Thanks in advance for any help CC’ers can offer.</p>
<p>There is a Bank of America ATM in Blanchard Campus Center. The closest Bank of America is on College Street in front of Big Y (about 1.5 miles away from campus). </p>
<p>As a first year she will be required to do at least 2 hrs. per week work-study in a dinning hall. She is free to take another job beyond that. Openings can be found listed on the JobX student employment page.</p>
<p>Thanks! (10 char)</p>
<p>MADad, there’s a Peoples Bank and ATM at the Village Commons, across College St from campus.
Depending on where you are on campus, the ATM is as close as the basement of Blanchard.</p>
<p>Peoples Bank and its employees are extremely student friendly. And if your d. requires the ability to physically make deposits, cash checks, etcetera, the close proximity to campus might be of benefit.</p>
<p>An added perk is The Thirsty Mind Coffee and Wine Bar is a few steps away and has free Wi-Fi :)</p>
<p>Peoples Bank is within walking distance–may make the choice easy.</p>
<p>Thanks</p>
