Tips for Student Travelers

There are more colleges and universities in and around Philadelphia than in any other city in the country, so students will find a warm reception from area vendors and attractions. A valid student ID will get you reduced rates on cultural sites, accommodations, car rentals, and more. You'll also get a deep discount at Apple Hostel (formerly Bank Street Hostel), 32 S. Bank St. (tel. 877/275-1971), right in the center of all of Old City nightlife and, oh yes, history.

When in Philadelphia, pick up a copy of student papers such as the Daily Pennsylvanian (www.dailypennsylvanian.com) at the Ivy League University of Pennsylvania, 34th and Walnut streets (tel. 215/898-5000; www.upenn.edu); the Temple News (www.temple-news.com) at Temple University, North Broad Street (tel. 215/204-7000; www.temple.edu); or the Triangle (www.thetriangle.org) at Drexel University, 32nd and Chestnut streets (tel. 215/895-2000; www.drexel.edu).
