It's also a fairly large place: some 200,000 resident in the city itself. This means it supports a proper economy (so no problems in getting a job to supplement the student loans) and also that there's plenty to do. It's not like being stuck in some one horse town somewhere.
It is also true that there are at least eleven colleges and universities in the city: more than that if you count the separate campuses. This means a high ratio of students to residents, so a thriving social and extracurricular life is possible. After all, we have to remember that it isn't just the books and the classes that make up the college experience.
