Well, the further in advance you by plane tickets, the cheaper they are.

If you can get flights that either leave or arrive in Boston at reasonable hours, and have luggages that you can pull or take upstairs with only minor difficulty, you can take public transportation to the airport, which saves 25-50 dollars on a cab, another student or the airporter.

You can wear shorts for about the first six weeks of school and then after that it’s pretty much pants and shoes. Throw in a winter coat somewhere and add the hat and gloves later. I’m a fan of thermal underwear myself.

It’s going to be 60F next week. I’m really excited.

MA is not Siberia not is it Upstate New York or Minnesota. You still have a real winter.

Budget for winter clothes and buy stuff when you get here. The weather will be hot and sticky for a good long time, but any store that sells clothes will sell something appropriate if there is time.

With any luck, Sister’s Keepers will happen again and you can get clothes for cheap.
