@books4life: Yes, banks in Boston charge a fee when withdrawing cash at an another bank’s ATM, however most stores in Cambridge and Boston will accept an ATM card for purchases, including small items like a cup of coffee or a slice of pizza. So, there’s really no need for a student to use cash, or withdraw cash and incur those fees.

FWIW: As seasoned adults, we are very used to having cash in our wallets, but millennials (at least my kids and their friends) don’t use cash. It’s all electronic transfers either with an ATM card or an APP like Venmo, PayPal etc. (Paypal owns Venmo, so it’s really the same thing.)
