    *You receive as much as you give. If you slack off and don't try doing your work, it will show.

    *Be open minded. The teachers might say things that will annoy you or otherwise rub you the wrong way, but you'd be surprised to know that even if you don't agree with them, their advice will still benefit you in the end.

    *Be sure to check out the free activities that Lesley has, including the free movie showings Saturday night! They're a great way to relax after a stressful week at school and best of all, you don't have to pay.

    *Beware of the shuttle that goes from Lesley to AIB and vice versa. It has not been unheard of for students to be late for their classes because of it. read full review

    Within a semester, I was already prepared with a new arsenal of ideas and knowledge. Compared to what I've learned here, I learned nothing in high school. The staff, services, resources, and most of all other students are all there to help you learn and grow. It is still challenging, but you have the opportunity to grow, not just academically, but socially and globally. It takes ten minutes to Harvard Square which is full of opportunities and places to explore, and if that's not enough, it's less than a half an hour on the T to get to any type of place you can image. Lesley gives you the comforts of the small, yet urban environment, in a school that you know most people at minimum by face, while still having the city of Boston at your fingertips. read full review
