Penn State vs. Umass sportsmangement

<p>D accepted to UMasssportsmangement with merrit $. She is very very excited. Just wanted your thoughts on both schools. Keeping in mind Penn State does not have Sportsmanagement. Thanks!</p>

<p>UMass has the one of the top (if not the top) sport management programs in the country. If she is dead set on studying sport management and shes in state and want to save money, I would definitely go to UMass. If she wants to attend a school with a lot of school spirit and a real D1-Athletic program, I would go to Penn State. Also, what would she major in at Penn State?</p>

<p>She applied undecided but would probably be a business major. We’re oos & with the Merrit $ UMASS is still $10,000 less then Penn State a year. Has heart set on Sportsmanagement Major & UMASS… so it’s all good.</p>

<p>Go with UMass…less costly. I think to most companies / employers / and even grad schools, large state schools are pretty much the same.</p>
