Student Printing, Copying and Scanning
Students have access to devices which provide print, copy and scan functionality located within the Student Work Room (Room 307), in the Student Study area on the 4th floor and in 2 Constitution Center. Students can send files to be printed from Institute or personally owned laptops, walk up to copy paper documents, and scan paper documents into PDF files and send them to their email address.
Students will receive $37 credit towards printing and copying each academic semester. There is no charge for scanning. When a student uses their semester credit they must add funds to their account through the vending style devices on the 4th floor of Building 36 and in 2CC. These Vending style devices only accept cash at this time. In the future they will also accept credit and debit cards.
The cost to print or copy a color page is $.15 and a black and white page is $.07.
Additional information on how to access and use theses devices will be distributed through the Office of Information Technology. If you need assistance contact the IHP Helpdesk at (617) 724-7910 or at ihphelp@mghihp.edu.
Parking
Students may purchase $100.00 of parking programmed onto their ID badge, payable by check to MGH Parking. A charge of $5.00 will be deducted upon exiting when parked anytime between 9:30 A.M. and 5:00 P.M., Monday-Friday. Vehicles left for multiple days will be charged $5.00 per day. Students may monitor their account balance on the card reader display upon entering and exiting.
Once the charge of $5.00 has been deducted from a student’s account, there will not be any additional charges for any re-entries to the CNY Building 199 Garage on that day. There is no fee deducted for weekends, holidays, or any weekday time period between 5:30 P.M. and 9:30 A.M. provided the ID badge has been programmed by the Parking Office.
Students must scan their ID badge upon entering in order for the badge to work upon exiting. Students who forget their ID badge may pull a ticket upon entering and need to bring that ticket to the CNY Parking Office (Monday-Friday, 8:00 A.M. – 4:30 P.M.) in order to avoid the public rate at exit.
Students may also purchase 20 evening tickets for parking from 3:30 P.M. – 9:30 A.M. for $40.00, payable by check to MGH parking.
Students may have their IDs programmed to allow for free parking in the evening (after 5:00 P.M.) and weekends.
If you are having a parking problem with your photo ID badge, please remember to resolve it at the CNY Parking Office in order to avoid the CNY public rate charge upon exiting. The CNY Parking Office is located in building 199 on 13th Street in the Charlestown Navy Yard.
Housing
It can be difficult to find an affordable and pleasant place to live in Boston, and that can be even harder for someone who is coming from out of state. With that in mind, there is a Housing unit in the Institute’s online course, Orientation 101, for new students entering the Institute in the summer and fall semesters. Although the Institute does not offer housing, Student Services tries to assist students by posting notices on sublets, rental rooms, apartments and house, as well as students looking for roommates.
Email studentlife@mghihp.edu with your listing. Be sure to include:
- Location of unit
- Square feet (if known)
- Number of roommates and gender
- Total expense per month
- Any exclusions (pets, smoking, etc.)
- Parking or T access
- Contact Information
Listings will be posted on Orientation 101 for 60 days. Please notify Student Services when you have filled your vacancy.
