I would second what m2ck wrote in her 2nd paragraph about the traveling cost. DS came home every break (except the last one) while in college. It did cost a great deal (and his travel time.) We have never gone to the Parent’s Weekend though (It would cost too much, especially for staying at a nearby hotel.)

If the travel cost and time is a concern, choose the one where there is a nearby major airport. The airfare could be cheaper. The worst scenario is: there is no major airport near where your parents live, and also no major airport near your oos school.
