<p>and where is the train station at the bc campus (is it in the main campus or somewhere else). do a lot of people go into the city? if they do, when?</p>
<p>thanks</p>
<p>its about a 5-7 min T ride. Beware that the T shuts down at 1230! And yes there is a BC stop on the B line of the T.</p>
<p>5-7 mins to get into downtown?? No no no.</p>
<p>To cross the town line from Allston/Brighton into Boston proper is going to be about 20 mins. Into downtown areas like Copley Square, the Theatre District, Prudential Center, etc is more like 30 - 45. The T stop right outside campus makes it VERY easy, and I'm pretty surprised students don't go in more often. </p>
<p>And yes, the T does shut down at 12:30. Highly inconvenient, but there are hundreds of cabs around BC on the weekends.</p>
<p>20 minutes. I agree.</p>
<p>how often do students go into boston?</p>
<p>It depends on which trains you use, but it at least 15 minutes or more. The D line is the fastest and it takes maybe 15-20 minutes to get "into" Boston, meaning the periphery. To get to downtown is about 25-30 minutes. You can also take the 86 bus to Harvard Square, always a lively place for college students. That's usually about 15-25 minutes depending on traffics.</p>
