I’m crossing fingers that I can resolve at home any mixing recommendations they give me. Then I’ll opt for the mastering witness/training session.
I still need to do the last bit of tracking; that’s scheduled for 4/18 — 4/21.
They specified one medium only. Which one should I request? If I say mp3, I’d still be able to pop that up onto SoundCloud, right?
One thing that’s a mild disappointment is that they use Pro Tools (no surprise), but I use Studio One. Will this limit me in anyway?

I think that's a great move. You'll learn a lot.
I'd request a full quality WAV file, which you can convert to whatever you need later, but you'll always have a full quality source to listen to.
I wouldn't worry about which DAW is used. The process is the same.
