hey everyone, i was wondering if anyone was thinking about pushing back interviews sine what happened,,i have to be in arizona next week and i dont know how confident i feel about flying and i m from ny....any thoughts???
 
Johndean, I too was supposed to fly to AZ on Thurs. for a Friday interview and I will call them on Monday to see if they will do a phone interview or make new arrangements. I will not fly at all, and will withdraw my application if they cannot accommodate us during this time. I will let you know if I call first and vice versa. Safety is my first concern and right now I don't any of us feel safe especially coming from big cities. 😕
 
Hi Johndean,
I am still planning on going, but I don't blame you for being scared. I can't figure out whether I'm more scared that I won't be able to get there (and get the interview over with) or that I will have to fly.

I would call the school, I'm sure they'll understand (just like they'll understand when I have to leave right after interviewing to get to the airport two hours before my flight). Let me know what you (and they) decide. 🙂 Liz
