[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Based on our visit to UMass Amherst (their flagship), it’s nice but hard to imagine what would make someone select it over closer options. It’s kind of in the middle of nowhere. The campus is not particularly beautiful. Altogether, outside the business school maybe, it was a bit forgettable. It felt like it was lacking a personality or a specific draw like you might see at UVM or other schools.[/quote] The students at UMass are nice — really nice. It’s a great school with lots of opportunities (my DS is in STEM). It has been gaining traction at our HS, as more and more students are attending UMass each year.[/quote] We toured UMass a couple of summers ago from out west. Though not as diverse, the relaxed friendliness of the students reminded us a lot of UC Davis, including one of the tour guides who was a program director at the campus radio station (UC Davis has a great one, KDVS).[/quote]
