yes it is. the session itself is really good b/c its not like an tour session where they slap up a powerpoint (those are great too). its a adcom member who sits in a room with you and talks kellogg and hits on very specific things for you.
I went during the off cycle campus visit season and had to do the exact same thing. honestly i highly recommend reaching out to a student as well to see if they can show you the lay of the land. I had the president of a club im interested in give me a tour, take me to class with her (they can do this off cycle - all they have to do is ask the prof), and we even had an after school snack with her club friends in the atrium!
I managed to do everything one would do in a full visit. She offered to do most of it after we spoke on the phone, but if you have a good convo with someone, doesn't hurt to inquire.
had a similar experience. definitely recommend reaching out to a student. info session was helpful and informative, but the student absolutely
made my visit.
