[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Does the kid have any strong inclination of where they want to be after college? If [b]Boston area[/b], go to UMass. If DC go to VT. But also, be sure you are comparing costs apples-to-apples. VT is not really $36k. Tuition, fees, room & board comes out to $30k (and we definitely spend less than that now that our son lives off campus). Their published "cost of attendance" includes books, transportation, personal expenses, loan fees. All more IME than we/DS pays.[/quote]I Umass is a perfectly fine school but on a good day Boston is about 90 minutes to 2 hours from UMass. Do not go there if you really want to be in Boston.
