[quote=Anonymous]So I have a child at UMass and he is very happy there. He is in STEM and really enjoys it and feels like he is getting a top-notch education. I cannot speak to humanities/psychology disciplines, but some of his electives in those areas have been fun. VT is much closer than, so definitely factor that in. My son took the train home (8 hours) or flew home from Hartford airport. There are many transportation options to the various airports. My son chose UMass because he wanted to get away from VA, and it’s been the right decision for him. There are party dorms and not-so-party dorms (mine chose the quieter dorms). The food is fantastic, as is the rec center. You get used to the cold. My son has made friends and seems very happy. We pay about $40k after merit.[/quote]
