Dear MassArt Students,
 
It is hard to believe that the summer is almost over and move-in day is approaching.  Many of you have chosen to live in the neighborhoods in and around Boston. In an effort to help you make a smooth transition into your apartment, I would like to share some information with you.

  • It is important that you know and understand your rights and responsibilities as a tenant. Rental Housing Resource Center can answer questions for tenants and help resolve problems with landlords: cityofboston.gov/rentalhousing/
  • The following website will provide you with information relevant to students living in Boston: cityofboston.gov/students/
  • Please join the Facebook group 2009 Boston Student Move-In Group dedicated to students moving-in around Boston. Log in to Facebook and search for the group.
  • MassArt prides itself on having a good relationship with our neighbors on Mission Hill. On September 1 you will see MassArt faculty and staff on the hill wearing MassArt T-shirts. If you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to ask these people for assistance. 

 
Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions.  Best wishes for a successful move-in.
 
Sincerely,
 
Jamie Glanton Costello
