Touchstone, I really don’t know about the Bay Street brownstones. I’ve heard of them and seem to recall that they are pricey. I think my son may have a couple of classmates who are sharing an apartment in Stuvi, the high-rise.

The great majority of the theatre students share apartments in Allston after freshman year. This is partly to save money; $600 or $700 a month for rent – with no meal plan – is much, much easier on the pocketbook than room and board at BU.

Allston is very close to West Campus where the CFA is, and the off-campus theatre students tend to all live a few blocks from one another.

I think what your son will want to do after freshman year will depend partly on whom he makes friends with and wants to share housing with.
