Dear Tamdave123,

Nice to hear from you and that you are looking early on for colleges and majors for your son. Unfortunately, I am not really aware or knowledgeable on animation studies, but you said you could see your son being interested in environmental sciences or something science related. Once I know that IT will be much easier to suggest colleges to research.

If you do not mind me asking, how much are you willing to pay for an out of state university for your son? Price is certainty one of if not the most important driving factors in college selection.

You were mentions looking into SUNY schools for your son. I would definitely recommend looking at Stony Brook University in that case, usually viewed as the academic superior of the SUNY especially when it comes down to science majors.

I realize that he is only a sophomore and PSAT scores now will not mean much but improvement will be needed. Not to worry he has tons of time to study and the private SAT classes or tutoring should help.

I noticed you wanted to stay in the Northeast region, what area are you from? This will help because you wanted to find schools withing driving range.

The most well known and main campus at UMass is UMass-Ahmerst. The OOS cost of attendance is more expensive than the other UMASS branch campuses. The other UMass branch campuses are UMass- Dartmouth and UMass Boston, but I do not know much or anything about them.
