Other things about Harvard:
- No, you can't live off campus. Unless you have "an extraordinary circumstance" i.e. you are married and parenting or are disabled and Harvard cannot accommodate you, you cannot avoid being put into a House. That being said, you can just rent an apartment and pay for both your Harvard accommodation and an apartment, but rent in Cambridge is nuts and I'm not rich.
- There is only a mental health counseling center, not an academic counseling center. Everything else is handled through the Houses or through departments.
- While I am aware other cities have rats, these rats are in my room. I'm fine with outdoor rats, I just don't like them running around under my bed and in my bathroom.
