UMass Amherst vs UConn

College Search & Selection
1

I live in MA and have been accepted into the honors programs at UMass Amherst and UConn. I got a scholarship from UConn, so the price would be roughly the same for both schools. I’m looking for some pros and cons on attending either school. I’m majoring in molecular bio and will most likely attend grad school, so is one school better for that program in terms of professors or internships? Anything I should know about student life?

I’d really appreciate any help! :slight_smile:

Is your scholarship renewable from year to year? Make sure that it is, and find out what you must do in order to have it renew.

Yes my scholarship does renew, and there’s a GPA requirement.

I’d say this would boil down mostly to fit. Go visit both and see which you feel more at home at IMO.
