You are not limited to campus
Online HIM programs work from New Britain too.
HIM is one of the few healthcare fields you can train for entirely online: 206 of the 350 CAHIIM-accredited programs nationwide are fully online, and 4 of the 4 New Britain programs are too. Employers verify the CAHIIM accreditation and the RHIT or RHIA credential; where the campus sits doesn't come up.
So compare the New Britain options against the fully online programs and the rest of the Connecticut field before you decide. Local can still win on price (community and technical colleges usually beat private online tuition) and on clinical-site relationships, but it should win on the merits, not by default.
