I've had one interview so far (Jefferson)
And in the span of the last 36 hours I got invited to two more interviews (SLU and schoolX)
The issue is, while the one I already interviewed at is my top choice (Jefferson), I still want to attend one of my new interviews (schoolX) to check out the campus and faculty as I may be interested in applying for residencies here, and don't want to ruin my relationship with the committee by turning down an intw invite I actually asked for.
Jefferson's committee is going to meet this week about my file and decide on the spot whether to accept me or to waitlist me. Getting off the waitlist is not easy. So I want to send a letter of intent so to increase my chances of getting accepted right away.
If they accept me this week, I will gladly turn down the SLU invite. However, if I send a letter of intent and they accept me based on that, would it be unethical for me to attend schoolX's interview?
Totally between the two.
To letter-of-intent or not to letter-of-intent
or to wait till I hear back this week?
or is there something else I could do which could address all my needs?
