For those of us lucky enough to have multiple interviews, or who are hoping/expecting something else to come through, I was wondering how everyone is going about coordinating everything and making travel arrangements.
So far I have made travel arrangements for the earliest interview, but have held off actually booking plane tickets for any others, though I have told two other programs that I would be coming. Even though I'm getting reimbursed, it's still a lot of money to be laying out for these interviews, not to mention time, but I don't want to miss any opportunities. It's so hard to know how I'm going to feel about these places after visiting, and that's making things all the more tough (if I love the first school I'm interviewing at then maybe I won't feel like I have to interview everywhere else and just pick my other top choice(s), but if I don't like the first one then I might want to check out everywhere else).
Plus, I'm not expecting any other invitations, but a number of schools I applied to haven't sent out invites yet, so who knows. And I'm applying all over the country so there may be the possibility of combining visits/interviews if it comes to that, but it's becoming a bit of a scheduling nightmare. And I don't want plane ticket prices to rise while I'm waiting either. Anyone else?
