PhD In EE :-)

I'm in the same situation but my interests are more in hardware for medical applications. I'd pick UCSD personally because the bioE program is really good and you could be co-advised. Dr. Coleman is in the BioE department and is someone worth checking out. I don't know enough about CMU to say anything there. As far as JHU, they are good at BIoE and have a good med school but I've never heard much about their EE department. UCSD is more highly ranked in that regard.

As the title states, what are the rules for adding people you come into contact with during school visit days? I am pretty comfortable sending requests to my peers who are going through the decision process but is it also okay to add some of the current students as well? Many of them I talked to at length and feel very friendly towards. Can current students be considered peers enough to add them prior to committing to a certain school?
