UMass isn't the worst school ever but if you have the opportunity to go somewhere better than I'd advise you do it - unless you want to major in Hospitality & Tourism Management or study agriculture, UMass isn't strong in much of anything else. As previous reviewers have said, there is definitely a lot of "theoretical" teaching and you can expect to feel like a number here pretty much all the time. Amherst as a town is boring and there is really nothing to do around here at all. I'd only advise you go here if you want to run a hotel, live in Mass and didn't get in anywhere else.
