Biostatistics Department Visits

[sibster]

Hello! I've been accepted to several biostats Master's programs, and I've been invited to visiting days for admitted students. I'm trying to decide which, if any, schools I should visit, and I was wondering if anyone has any thoughts about how important/worthwhile it is to visit. Would I be making a mistake by accepting an offer from a school without visiting? Of course, I would ideally like to visit schools, but some would require travelling a significant distance (and missing a few days of class), so I'm trying to decide if it's worth it. Any thoughts? If you also applied this season, are you planning to visit schools?
