Hi I’m currently trying to decide between UMass Amherst and Marist College for a degree in communications. I am stuck between the two and can’t make a decision for the life of me.
Marist College is in a way better location for internships and they have a great program for communications. I want my focus to be PR and UMass has no real program for that while Marist has a great one with lots of opportunities.
Seems like an easy choice, but my heart lies with UMass. I love the feel of the bigger school and the possible opportunities it could bring me. I also like the campus and everything about the school except for the fact that there is no real program for my major. I would have to try and double major in communications and marketing to get the training I want.
I guess the real debate is whether I should go with my heart or not. Keep in mind cost is not a factor and any advice would be helpful!
