Not a lot of great choices in that part of the country. SEC is where it's at.

Not all of them, some of them, but agree this is a good idea.

Depends on the kid. Alternative = UVM. Meathead = UMass. Nerd = UConn. None of these schools is dramatically stronger or weaker than the others, but they offer very different vibes/experiences. Different from (and stronger than) any of them and not too far removed = McGill.

Definitely UConn but other schools have greatly improved as well (UVT, UMass)

UMass has gotten so much better than when I visited back in the mid-90s. Much better stats and reputation.

What would you recommend to a high achieving student who wants to add 1-2 state schools to the list, and lives in New England and would prefer to stay in the region?

Thank you!
