<p>Is UMASS Lowell a good, reputable school? I'm really thinking of going there because they have what I think I want to study and then also have division II sports.. any additional info on this school?</p>
<p>I come from Massachusetts so I know a tad bit about UMASS Lowell. I believe from last year's admissions, the average gpa was 3.1, and the average SAT's are 1094. It is part of the UMASS system, but it is overall behind the flagship school (UMASS Amherst), but I believe it is more science-engineering dominated than the other UMASS's. For diversity: 80% white 60% male. I believe they have a 15:1 faculty:student ratio and most, if not all, of their classes are taught by prof's, not TA's. If you are into the whole...ratings thing...UML is unfortunately isnt listed on USNews. For the social scene, I've heard that the campus is split into 2 sections, one being the social, party types and the other being the engineering, "nerd" types. (I'd fall into the nerd category personally, if I went there :-P)
Ok, that is about all I know.</p>
