<p>Thank you in advance for you advice on this topic!!</p>
<p>My son is planning to study Hospitality Management and has narrowed his choices down to Penn State and UMASS, Amherst. We are NY state residents but none of our state schools offer a decent program so it looks like we will need to pay out-of state tuition. Any advice/experience that you can provide would be appreciated. A couple of factors:</p>
<p>PSU is a higher ranked school.</p>
<p>PSU is more expensive. ($8-10K difference with aid)</p>
<p>UMASS has a higher ranked Hospitality Management program (#6 vs #7)</p>
<p>Hospitality at UMASS is in the Isenburg School of Business while the PSU program is in the Human Development and Communications school.</p>
<p>My son is looking for a school with a lot of school spirit.</p>
<p>HELP!!!!</p>
<p>Thank you</p>
