does interviewing say, in january, rather than december negatively affect chances of admission? I am abroad volunteering and my travel plans are the reason for the delay, the school is aware of this.

If it's rolling, yes, it'll probably impact you negatively. If it's non-rolling, no, it won't matter.

That one month isn't going to make the biggest difference.

If you are volunteering already, no sense worrying about it now.

if you were talking october vs january i would say make it happen. december vs january isn't a huge issue, just know that rolling admissions schools can be half full to almost completely full by december, so you are effectively competing for a much smaller number of spots, making the competition harder.
