Off-Campus Housing at Wellesley College

No One Lives Off Campus

Housing is guaranteed for every student, all four years of college. Therefore, not many people live off-campus. Transportation around the town of Wellesley isn't great unless you have a car. Plus, Wellesley is ridiculously expensive.

School Spirit- What's That?

There is zero school spirit. As a former athlete, I attest that athletics are very far from the focus of our college. Granted, we're all women and we don't have the bigger male sports like football, but our games go unattended.

Plus, we don't even have a real mascot- our mascot is "blue".
