Our area is known for the Five Colleges--UMass Amherst, Amherst College, Smith College, Hampshire College, and Mount Holyoke College--nestled in quintessential New England towns full of restaurants, shops, and historical and cultural sites. Students at UMass and the Field School can take advantage of these resources, as well as our proximity to Boston (~2 hours) and New York City (~3 hours, trains and buses available).
