You also have the opportunity to sleep over up to three nights each week, and you can join residential students on any of our evening and weekend trips. (Staying past 4:30pm or overnight involves an additional charge to cover the cost of meals and/or lodging.) day student transportation bus transportation Most day students travel to Wellesley College on one of our nine school bus routes, which operate Monday-Friday.
