@skyflower17 In some ways I would argue that U is better in this case. Minneapolis is more diverse than Madison.
There are many bio tech businesses in the Cities. I would be working hard with the department and the career center to find internships there. I know that you currently want to go premed but keep the door open to other jobs in the medical world.
My husband was a member of Minneapolis chapter of INROADS which matches college students with businesses for paid internships. For him they did a terrific job of exposing him to interesting workplaces, quality internship work, and having a job offer as he graduated from college. He ended up taking a job in a different city but INROADS experiences had given him the skills he needed. Recently I know of a student from our rural area who was able to join INROADS in the Cities where his college was located. He is now working for the company where he interned. I am pretty sure this student was DACA but not 100%.
COLLEGE PROGRAM
The college program is for students interested in the fields of Business, Finance, Accounting, Economics, Engineering (STEM), Supply Chain Management, Computer Science/MIS, Healthcare, Retail Management and Liberal Arts
You do not need to start with them your freshmen year. It is ok to start during your junior year of college and have just one summer with them.
