<p>@mpicz, Saer: Thanks for the advice. I know I should go visit and all, and I probably will when I sign up for my interview, but I’m far enough away that I’ll probably need a plane ticket, or, at the very least quite a bit of train-jumping. I’m thinking costs, but if I narrow it down too much I’m left with little or no choices in schools; I narrow it down too little, and I pay a fortune in travel fees. If you were me, what would you do?</p>
