What do you think?

do you have in-state at UW or Minn reciprocity?

Do you want to practice in Chicago or Milwaukee / Madison?

I would be paying out-of-state tuition at wisconsin, and I would enjoy practicing in both regions. I have family in southern wisconsin and i am from a suburb of Chicago. If i had to choose i'd prefer to practice in Chicago. I just wonder if the higher ranking for wisconsin is actually worth the money. COL in chicago is also much higher than madison.

Go see what the schools say is the cost of attendance. I'd guess Kent is probably 5K-10K more.

But both these are very risky at these prices. Do your parents live in the suburbs still? Kent is near the Metra stations. Commuting to have free housing and food might be a good way to attend Kent at a very cheap price.

Take the $$ at Chicago-Kent--Wisconsin's been dropping in the rankings.
