Good university in Washington or the vicinity?

Question

I would love to move to an area in the U.S. where it rains all the time. I have been told that Washington is the best place for me. So, does anyone know of a good college in the area? I am currently set on being a research scientist...maybe a medical research scientist, but I'm still deciding. So I'm not too picky about the classes at the moment. Any recommendations? Thanks for your time!

Answer 1

John Hopkins&George Washington University

Answer 2

If you like rain, consider Portland, Oregon also.

Answer 3

Washington University and Washington State are both very good schools.

I don't mean to scare you or anything but Seattle does have the highest suicide rate in the US, because of all of the dreary weather. Just something worth knowing, I suppose.

Edit:

Oh. If you're talking about Washington DC, go with the first guy's answer. I just figured you meant Washington state because of the rain comment.
