Offered two dates in January (both of which I already have booked) :/

Has anyone run into this yet? I literally only have three unavailable dates in January, and of course the two available dates left of this site are for two of those. Has anyone requested to move an interview they already made? The three potential sites I am trying to figure out are all at the top of my list of interest and I don't want anyone to think I am any less interested because I am requesting to move my interview. Have others done this? I know it will depend a lot on the site, but I am just wondering what people's general experience has been doing this!!

Check with your DCT--they may have good insight about nuances/etiquette in making this type of inquiry to sites.
