BU vs. MGH speech pathology

[speechpathstudent22]

I know there are already similar threads to this one, but I need help making a decision. The things I care most about are housing, transportation, cohort size/relationship, faculty relationship, and opportunities post graduation (and how MGH's extra semester affects this).

If you go to either of these, please let me know how your living choice has affected your life in any way and what the majority of students choose to do. I'm not from the Boston area so I'm not familiar with neighborhoods but would love any information on them. I want to know how the cohort genuinely interacts and how this differs between schools. Does being in a more isolated area at the IHP have an affect on your life? Right now I like the layout/location of BU's campus better but MGH's academics better (but unsure about the 6th semester). Any ideas help!!
