It's coming down to the last minute and my son still hasn't made his decision between UM and Boston University. He did an overnight in a dorm with a friend at BU and would like to overnight at UM. He called the admissions office and they said that they don't offer overnight visits for admitted students. Does anyone have any ideas? He's 18, so I guess that he could stay at the Holiday Inn across the street from UM. He also heard that final exams start next week, so he's wondering if it will even be possible to sit in on a class, meet with students (since they'll all be studying for exams), etc.

Have any of you visited UM on your own? If so, where did you stay? Any and all suggestions will be greatly appreciated.
