Do you plan to actually tour? Just note that fitting BU and Northeastern in one day can be a hastle due to the lengtth and concurring tme slots of their tour/info sessions.

Brandeis could easily be done in the same day with Wellesley or Bentley if you are looking into business. If this is your daughter, I would highly reccomend taking a drive through Wellesley, not that far from Brandeis, even if she show little interest into all-girls schools, perspectives change once kids actually get on campus and actually talk to people. If you need any help with tours at Wellesley or Northeastern, I have friends & colleagues in both admissions offices (actually, a sister in one ;)).

Descant covered mos of the feasibility issues. As forhotels, I can’t help you there, before I moved, I always just stayed at the most centralized Hampton Inn, good rates, complimentary hot breakfast, cable, pools, and for the financially strapped like me, it doesn’t cost an arm and a leg… otherwise, I’d be staying at the Nine Zero Hotel everyday.

I’m not the best at recommending hotels, but I can tell you that you probably want a hotel located by Back Bay to make your traveling a tad bit easier.
