Is it possible to move up your interview date if you call and ask??

Also, is it possible to call asking FOR an interview? Like say you are in the area for vacation/another interview, can you call them up saying that you are and ask to be interviewed within the next few days, even if you haven't heard back yet from them regarding interviews? A current student told me her friend did this, and then got in, so I was just wondering.

Also if ^ is possible, couldn't anyone just say they got an interview at ___ which is in the area (but in reality either didn't hear back yet/got rejected) and still get an interview at the school they call (if they did the method above)??? How would they have any way of verifying/checking this?

It's possible, but surely not definite.

Personally, I would never try this. I'd assume it's possible, but HIGHLY unlikely. If I was a school administrator, it would annoy me if you did this. I wouldn't be surprised if other people had similar reactions.

of course. I did this for 3 interviews. One of them I postponed for a month. the other had over 10 interview options on the website, so you could change your date anytime. Another interview I changed the date to 20 days earlier.
