What are international applicants on here doing about recruitment visits? (I live in western europe and the schools I'm considering are all in the US)

Most schools accomodate a different campus visit day. Just e-mail them.  If you have more than one school to visit, you can even ask them to share the costs in a way they find suitable.

Hi, 

I was interviewed two weeks after the application deadline. A week later, I was informed that I am offered admission. I will attend the prospective student event. I think they hold the prospective student event at an early date because they want to give more time to the student who will be offered admission if the students in the first cycle reject their offers.

Hope you will make it!

Are you a domestic applicant? I am also admitted but did not receive any info regarding the prospective student event. It might have something to do with me being an international applicant. Maybe they do not have the budget to reimburse overseas tickets. Is your expenses covered by the university?

What do you think it means if my admissions portal at Minnesota changed to "Final Review"?

I had the same, now it changed to "decision made". It says:

please allow one business day to view your decision once your status on this page has been updated to Decision Made
