Michigan State University VS. University of Wisconsin-Madiso

I am on the state of the decision.

Any one have any ideas about the pros and cons of these two places about physics itself , the city and the weather?

It might help me a lot to make a decision in the next few days. :shock:

PS. I am going there to do CME.

Is Michigan State really even in the same tier as UW-Madison?

Weather in Michigan and in Wisconsin will be pretty similar. The town of Madison nice - lots of variety and plenty of culture.

I don't know what your research field is, but UW Physics is a huge, active, and renowned department. For me the choice would be a no-brainer.
