BU converted the Howard Johnson’s on Commonwealth Ave, just west of Kenmore Square, to a dorm. Many decades earlier, they converted the Sheraton Hotel on Bay State Road to a dorm called Shelton Hall.
Harvard converted the Quality Inn on Mass. Ave. to a Harvard Law School dorm (after demolishing a piece of it, I think).
The Buckminster Hotel in Kenmore Square became a Grahm Junior College dorm for a while, then was re-converted to a hotel.
The MIT dorm now called Maseeh Hall, formerly Ashdown House, at Memorial Drive and Mass. Ave. in Cambridge, was originally built as a hotel. Further west on Memorial Drive, MIT’s Burton-Conner dorm also started life as an “apartment hotel”.

Save money on books, school supplies and everything you want to enjoy college! Financial aid, back in the olden days meant grants, scholarships, work study jobs. Loans were part of the package, but since they are available, ‘common thought’ was it is not financial aid – it was however a low interest loan. If you’re dependent on your parents, and they are below a certain income, most colleges give you much monies to help you attend their school. The middle class student with 2 working parents pays much more for their child to attend school and that student often can’t get work study job on campus. Those jobs are limited to the kids with financial aid.
If you can, or your parents can, to lower your loan debt when you leave school, if you have any monies, try to pay at least the interest while you are in school. Many loans start adding interest the day they are used to pay for school. So a $10,000 loan becomes a $12,000 amount when you leave school (example each loan is different) If you pay the interest (example $25 per month) then the $10,000 loan is only $10,000 when you leave school.
