<p>Wellesley has train service, too. It’s just that the station is more than .75 from campus. At Bryn Mawr, it’s only about .4 miles – a 7 minute walk. Wellesley does have shuttle vans to MIT which, I believe also stop at the “T” station (Boston’s subway) closest to Campus.</p>
<p>One advantage of Philly is that you have very quick train or bus access to points north (NYC) and south (D.C.). Boston is a hike to NYC</p>
