Hi everyone,

I realize I'm very lucky in this situation so apologies if I come off badly or entitled. Really not trying to.

I have been so grateful to get 10 interview invites this season. I am nearing the last 3 interviews and am burnt out. I also am spending too much money on interviews (flying far, etc). I work full time and it feels like all my money is going towards this process.

My question: I already declined one interview. I'm thinking about declining my last one (a mid tier) as I honestly am spent and I don't see myself going to that school unless I get a scholarship or smething. I have already gotten into two schools--one being my state. Not sure if I should attend this last one but a friend told me to attend all of them in case a school gives me a better financial package--and worse case I can use to negotiate. I have spent most weekends traveling or prepping for interviews and working a stressful job. I don't mean to complain, it's a good problem to have but I'm just tired of the process. Thanks!
 
You have two acceptances. If you'd rather go to one of those schools than one you have an upcoming interview at, then decline.

If you're worried about money and think you'd have a good shot getting more from a school you still haven't interviewed at, then go.
