I need some advice from fellow engineers since our depts might be different than others.

I have about a week and a half before spring break, over which I would like to visit as many of the schools as I can, but there are still 6 schools that I haven't even heard from. Is it considered ok to email them and just say "hey how far along are you guys? I was wanting to take a visit but don't know whether to plan one or not." or something like that?

I am really getting stressed out with trying to plan these trips and also keep all my school work in order, so I need some advice...
