CLS advice

Has anyone been lucky enough to request an alternate location for their cls program and it be approved? I got Latvia but wanted Bishkek, the thing is that I also applied for an alternate scholarship to Bishkek and I also got that one but it is with a university and it is a week shorter than the CLS program. Before I accept the offer I asked if I could switch and they said it is not likely but would consider it soo I am kinda stumped/
