Housing
Female residents are housed in Boston University's Shelton Hall and
the male residents are housed next door at 81-83 Bay State Road, a
brownstone. Shelton Hall's rooms are primarily two adjoining double
bedrooms with a shared bathroom. 81-83 Bay State Road's rooms
are all double occupancy with a private bath in the hall shared by
a small number of residents. Both dorms have lounge
areas.
Meal Plan
Residential students are served
two hot meals a day in the Shelton Hall dining facility. Monday
through Friday an additional bagged lunch will
be provided for all residents. Brunch and dinner are provided
on the weekends. In addition, students can walk to places
near the studio or the dorms for snacks.
Transportation
SDP Students take the "T" (subway) from Kenmore on the Green Line,
two stops down to Copley Square. They then walk a short
distance through the historic brownstone neighborhood of Boston's
South End to the Boston Ballet studios. Students are required
to use the "buddy-walk" system at all times for safe travel to
and from the studio and dormitory. A "T" pass is provided to
all resident students (all students paying room & board).
BU Fitness & Recreation Center
(option for students ages 16+)
SDP students who are age 16 or older by the start of the
program may complete and bring the form sent in the mail

Center. (If under 18 years old, participant must provide a
signed informed consent form from a parent or legal guardian before
the membership will begin). Access is granted using your
temporary BU ID card, which will be issued upon arrival.
Therefore, students applying for membership must do so once they
