Let me put it this way. If you organize a trip to visit all the schools that you get interviews, it will be easier for you to choose a program that best fits you should you get all the admissions. When you interview on ground, I don’t think it will give you better odds from admissions officer’s prospective given that lots of people visit school every day. However, I would say school visit definitely helps you answer the “WHY” question better b/c you can learn a lot from current students and from your own observation. I truly believe that I wouldn’t have gotten into Darden had I did my interview in Asia. If this is a very important game to you, you will like to work on every opportunity to make yourself stand out.
