About

The University of Massachusetts was founded in 1863 under the Morrill Land-Grant Acts. The University began life in 1863 as the Massachusetts Agricultural College, with the curriculum consisting of modern farming, science, technical courses, and a smattering of the liberal arts.

UMass Amherst, situated in Amherst, Massachusetts, sits on nearly 1,450 acres in the scenic Pioneer Valley of Western Massachusetts.

iSchoolConnect’s services are well-thought-out and affordable. I was looking for someone to review my SOPs and LORs and fine-tune them as and when required. ISC helped with exactly the same.
