I suspect Wesleyan will not feel remote at all – it’s in a small city (not a small town) and not at all rural. I don’t know if you’re familiar with the geography of Connecticut, but even small towns, with a few exceptions in the northern corners of the state, are pretty well-connected, and the Hartford-to-New Haven corridor is densely packed and offers lots to do. It’s very easy to get to NYC from there, as well (and from New Haven, anything in the Boston-DC corridor is pretty accessible through Amtrak). Not big-city cosmopolitan, but definitely not isolated.
