I gotta agree with Greg on the ivy league comments, it just opens so many doors that if he has the credentials to get in, he should really give it a shot. Of course, the comments about the right fit and what he wants to do with his life are valid, but in a lot of places, the name of the school on your resume is really a huge part of getting your foot in the door.
Now the difference is if he wants to go right to law school or medical school after undergrad, then I think you could be a superstar at Umass and get in to any other law/med school you wanted and then get the name recognition that way.
Like it or not, that's the society we live in so if he has the tools to get those names on his resume, he should go for it.
