5.0 of 5 stars. This was one of my favorite days spent in Boston, but I'm really giving 5 stars for the Havahd Yahd tours run by the students. The tour is free and meets right by the red line in Harvard Square. The...

Yelp.com Review - by Anthony V.

3.0 of 5 stars. As a current college student in CA, I really wanted to check out Harvard's campus. I thought it would be overrated and I was right. I was surprised to see how plain it was. The campus was clean but...

5.0 of 5 stars. So, I must divulge that I actually go here before I start. I'll be graduating in a year and see Harvard as a place that has brought me so, so far in the past 3 years. And I don't only mean...

2.0 of 5 stars. You suck Harvard. And no I am not jealous of you b/c I "didn't get in". I have met the most spoiled brats, and social inept people at the same time. You guys just don't know how to have some fun....

3.0 of 5 stars. An ok place to walk around. Sadly I wasn't wowed even though pictures I've been shown from here look great. Maybe my pictures will end up tricking someone else into stopping by.

5.0 of 5 stars. It's perhaps best to stay away from facile stereotypes. Indeed, MIT students tend to have more focus on the science, math and technology subjects, but that's why students interested in this apply. It...

3.0 of 5 stars. Disappointing. As a campus, this isn't a patch on the Oxbridge pair, or any number of other campuses I've seen. The buildings are austere and there appears to be next to no art on the campus - I...
