You gonna die.

You need a good fleece.
Something medium-weight, but breathable.
You might want to bring this with you, or plan to buy it not-too-long after arrival.

You need a good Parka. Not a jacket. A dang Parka.
But you will not need said parka when you arrive in the Fall. You can buy it later.

You need waterproof boots.
Lightly insulated is a plus.
You will not need these either on move-in day.

You will very probably want a hat & gloves too if you generally like doing things outdoors.
You can buy those same time as parka.

When I say Parka, I mean this:

Not this:

Long enough to cover your butt. An insulated hood. Pockets deep enough for your entire hand, plus your phone, plus a pair of gloves.

Now, if you are a home-body, and don't like to go outside, you can get buy with sweaters under anything rain-resistant, plus tennis shoes with thicker socks to just dash to class.

You don't HAVE to buy North Face / Columbia / LL Bean gear.
My understanding is that the Boston Area Goodwill has a solid supply of warm coats due in part from all the students coming & going. (There are like 26 universities in the Boston area).
