I was going to say…how will you pay for Wisconsin? If it would be debt, then it’s not worth it.

Rhodes and Connecticut Colleges have pretty similar student bodies and will probably offer you a similar education. I think the difference is going to be based a lot on location and atmosphere. If you are international, note that the Northeast is much better connected through commuter train and other transportation lines than the Southeast. So from New London, you could probably visit a lot of other cities on the Northeast Corridor between Boston and Washington, D.C. From Memphis…you could always hop a Greyhound, I suppose, but you’d have to be prepared for long uncomfortable bus rides.

On the other hand, Memphis is a large city - third-largest in the Southeast (9th largest in total metropolitan regions) and 23rd largest in the U.S. (41st in total metropolitan regions) - whereas New London is more of a large town/small city. Memphis is going to be warmer in the fall and winter than Conn College. It’ll get cold and snowy in CT, especially in December, January and February.

Rhodes has a business major. Connecticut does not.
