<p>This definitely sounds like a great choice for your son! Many of the engineering majors that I know applied to, and turned down, the exact same schools your son did, so he’s definitely in a great place!</p>
<p>I know a ton of people from the DC/VA/MD area, so he’s definitely not alone! The best travel option for anyone in the middle states (I’m from Philadelphia) is to fly from Cleveland to Baltimore on Southwest (typically between $59 and $80 each way with free bags) and then take the Amtrak or MARC from BWI (airport) to wherever you’re going! Some people at Case have cars, but unless you know someone you probably won’t be able to get a ride! Flying is super easy though- the RTA (Cleveland train) takes you right there for free!</p>
