Studying at MIT is an experience unlike any other - you are, at every point, surrounded by some of the best student and faculty minds in the world. The culture could perhaps by described as "work hard, play hard" - academics at MIT make even the smartest students scratch their head in frustration, but it inculcates a spirit of team work and collaboration like nothing else can. https://www.mit.edu/campus-life/ can be a great resource for you to look further into housing, dining, and extracurricular life at MIT. The MIT blog, as well as YouTube series like "A day in the MIT life" (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZMyKOkyAjUQ) can also assist you further.
