BUSM Student Residence

Affordable housing for medical students soon will become a reality with the establishment of the new student residence, just two blocks from the medical school.

Scheduled to open in June 2012, the student residence at 815 Albany St. will be a nine-story complex with apartments for 208 students in addition to retail and common space on the first floor. The residence will transform the student-life experience for many BUSM students, fostering a convenient and affordable living and learning environment.

A campaign has raised more than $11 million towards the $23 million building goal. To learn more about the student residence click here.
