i thought about asking for that but since they already assigned an adcom interviewer i didn't want to further complicate things. they already have their hands full coordinating all the international interviews within a one week span. figured it would be tough to ask for last minute change although i'm def willing to travel to nearby city.
That's quite a dilemma you're stuck in.
I had similar dilemma and dropped them a mail.

R1 interview date range is mentioned as November 24 - December 09, 2014. Due to work commitments, I will be in Malaysia until November 30, 2014 and will be in India after that. Hence, I am drawn between Singapore and New Delhi as my choices for interview location.
I could not find info about how the process is being arranged at non-hub locations, whether it is arranged on specific dates or has a date range. Hence, I am curious to know that while Fuqua has already accommodated prospective students by providing several interview locations, would the admissions team be able to make another accommodation by accepting a date based choice?
And they promptly replied back stating the following.

You will need to pick a possible location that is close to you, however if that time and location does not work once you hear back from the interview coordinator to confirm your interview that is when you need to possibly suggest another time, date or location. Should you have additional questions please contact our office and at 919.660.7705 and speak with one of the officers of the day.
I believe that they are pretty cooperative (blame it on Fuqua culture
). So, dropping a mail stating your willingness to travel isn't a bad idea. You might also want to state that you don't want to complicate stuff for them but at the same time do not want to ruin your chances too.
All the best...
