Congrats.

UMass Amherst can be a great place if you want it to be. I finished in 2002 with a BS in chemical engineering and a double major in economics. The engineering school and polymer science are pretty good; check the Gourman Report. I don't know about the rest. Polymer science is the best in the world, by the way.

I actually liked that most of the students went through school in a half drunk, half hungover haze.

Also, there's plenty of money at universities for things like books and board if you know how to get it. If you son was smart enough for the award, he'll be smart enough to get the rest of the cash. No worries. My first year I had almost no scholarships, and by my last year, I think I paid $75 a semester - out of state.
