So I've got this situation...

I've been accepted by MSUCOM (which is at the top of my list), but I have been invited to interview by CCOM and UMDNJSOM. I'd like to visit both, especially UMDNJ as the class size is small, I've heard great things about the school, and you're able to declare residency immediately which makes the financial side of education far sweeter. UMDNJSOM has assigned me Dec 10th as my day to interview, although I pretty much assume that if I were to call and ask for another day, they'd agree to a later date.

CCOM has this website where you select a date from the list they provide...dates that are all in the past...ugh!

I'm hoping to recieve an invite from PCOM soon so that I can schedule PCOM and UMDNJSOM together as they are geographically on top of one another.

What do you guys suggest I do about CCOM? Should I just forget it? Do I leave PCOM for itself and try to schedule Chicago with NJ (a bit far apart for a three day trip)?

Thanks in advance!
 
I'd call PCOM to ask them if you can come in to interview there to save on airfare. I know from exprience that many schools in one area, especially philly, are good about scheduling around the student. Tell them you have one at UMDNJ and would like to schedule it for the same week. Just as a warning, PCOM is very slow this year since their director of admissions left. Both of my interviews at PCOM and UMNDJ were in the morning and I was done by 12-1pm. I am not sure if either offer afternoon interviews, but you may be able to get away with interviewing at both in one day. Good luck.


by the way UMDNJ-SOM is awesome!
