My class is in the evening and I will probably stay overnight as there doesn't seem to be any late night flights from BOS back to WAS.

I know there are shuttles to BOS from LGA/JFK, any experiences?

I'm really just looking for suggestions on ways to make this as painless as possible.
Class at night- are you in the Harvard Extension School (as opposed to FAS- Harvard College & GSAS, or Divinity, or Design, or Business, or Government, or Medical, etc...)
Just wondering why you'd do this to yourself- there are plenty of colleges in WAS, or you should move to BOS if you're going to take many classes. Just curious.
Anyway, about the flights I think the latest BOS-IAD would be at 8:40pm, and earliest around 6 am, and both United Airlines/United Express and Independence Air run numerous nonstop flights between BOS and IAD.
