Interview at same time as finals?

I haven't received any information about interviews yet, but from looking at previous posts it looks like some people had their interviews for Iowa State at the beginning of December. This is stressing me out because I have finals at this time. What do I do if this ends up being a problem? Do I contact the vet school to try to reschedule my interview or try to reschedule my final?😱

You could do either. Alternatively I went to one of my finals in a suit since my interview was right before it.

Please don't stress yourself out about something that isn't an issue yet!

I am sure if it becomes an issue, you will be able to work it out with the admins/instructors of the schools.

I wouldn't stress about it too much but it is probably easier to take the exam early than it is to reschedule the interview. I had talked to professors early in the semester about the possibility of missing an exam due to an interview and work out a deal that I would take any exam early. So it may be worth talking to your professors about earlier rather than later. You may not get a lot of notice before an interview and I don't like suprising professors with issues when I need thier goodwill!

Look on the bright side, an interview in early December would be totally awesome! Means you don't have to wait to feb/march!

"Worry is payment on debt you do not owe." I don't remember who said that, but it has stuck with me.

This would be a *good* problem to have, right? 😉

that's a great quote! 🙂

my advice would to be to ask to reschedule final. If professor is unwilling, then contact the interviewing school and ask them to reschedule the interview while informing them you already tried to reschedule exams

Why did I think Iowa interviewed in February? I guess I'm confused . . .

I can't for the life of me remember where I heard it! So appropriate for students/todays economy.

Because there are multiple sets of interviews 🙂
