My DS21 has been accepted to several schools and is now trying to decide. He is majoring in Mech Engineering, focus on aerospace.

His #1 choice is Wentworth, due to its location in Boston and smaller campus atmosphere. The difficulty is that he also has been accepted to UMass Amherst and UConn Storrs - with no aid to UConn (oos), but UMass is in state. Their programs seem superior to Wentworth’s in our research (more opportunities coming out). UConn would be our #1 choice but is it worth the extra cost? UMass and Wentworth would be similar in cost.

Just looking for some guidance on Wentworth - their program, experiences at the school or reputation.
