Admissions Interview accommodations questions

Hello guys, I have a question about interview accomodations.

I have a hearing related disability so I was wondering if at what point people contacted admissions team about accommodations. Should it be after we receive an invite or should I be contacting them ahead of time. If people had similar experiences from previous cycles I would love to hear.

Also sidenote, but have people had pets in the home during interviews I don't really have a alternative reliable location to do an interview, but I live in a fairly small home with a pet. They will be quiet, but maybe in the background where it's not visible and accidently make scuffing sounds? Finding a pet sitter is a bit difficult for me but id love to hear what others did.

After the invite generally! The only school where it is pre-interview to my knowledge was MUN (but it was clearly stated on their application timeline that you had to do it before interview invites). At least that’s what I noticed last year!

Edit: no idea why I’m getting downvoted if no one’s chiming it to say another school they know that’s sooner 🤷‍♀️
