peapod Posted January 29, 2011 Report Share Posted January 29, 2011 I got an interview at queen's as well and was wondering if McMaster would allow me to change my Apr 2 nd interview to March 26 or 27, which would save me at least 600 dollars in flights if I can put the two interviews in one weekend.... Has this happened to anyone before?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HBP Posted January 29, 2011 Report Share Posted January 29, 2011 I wanted to do the opposite and asked. They said no. It'd be nice if we could switch, I'm march 27. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rlp111 Posted January 29, 2011 Report Share Posted January 29, 2011 My interview is April 2nd, and I want to change it to March 27th. Like you it'll save me a lot in flights, I'll be in there the previous weekend anyway for another interview. I emailed but no one responded.. really sucks!

thatonekid Posted January 30, 2011 Report Share Posted January 30, 2011 I don't think they let you reschedule because MMI scheduling depends on having a specific number of people for each time slot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
misskris Posted February 11, 2011 Report Share Posted February 11, 2011 Our exam schedule came out the other day, and it turns out I have an exam at the same time as my interview. The only option for rescheduling the exam is to write in November, but as I probably won't be living in Ottawa at that time, it makes it kind of tough. Does anyone think I might be able to change my interview to accomodate my exam? It's not a course I require but it's something I'd like to have. Thoughts?

Call/email them, explain the situation, and see what Mac says. I'm sure people ask for another interview date all the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just called. Apparently they don't make any exceptions to the rule and no changes are allowed. Guess I'm dropping my course Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rmorelan Posted February 11, 2011 Report Share Posted February 11, 2011 McMaster seems really backwards in this regard. why are they scheduling interviews during the typical examination period anyway - that is just going to cause unneeded pain(?)

Guess I'm dropping my course That sucks. Maybe you should talk to your prof. I know that officially there's a deferred exam period, but last year I knew a girl who had something major going on the day of her final. She totally could have written her final, but she felt like she wouldn't be able to give the exam her maximum attention. So she talked to the prof and he let her write it the day before, unofficially. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But it's the French language certification course, and apparently they won't administer the exam during the defered period, just let me write at the one in November. Thanks for the advice though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
