Interview booking help!

I am hoping to get some advice if anyone can help! I was offered interviews for RVC and Aberystwyth (in person) on 5th and 7th December about a week ago. I have accepted these.

Yesterday I received an interview offer from Cambridge. It is on zoom and is at the exact same time as the RVC interview (what are the chances!). I emailed them to explain that I was unavailable and they have refused to move the date.....

Any advice would be most welcome...I feel stuck between a rock and a hard place and really don't want to have to choose between them!

did you just say that you were unavailable, or did you provide evidence of why i.e. the booked RVC interview?

I said I had an appointment. They only have interviews on that day

Unis won't be surprised that you have other interviews. I have seen the Peterhouse rep suggest that people provide evidence that they have tried to move the other half of the clash - it might help. There is never only one day - people get sick, trains strike.

Although several years ago now, what was the result? Did you manage to secure a place for VetMed??
