How to request a location preference change to a Recruiter?

I have applied an internship in a big 4 firm recently, but I don't know if I will be selected to the on campus interview until 3 days from now. But before that, I want to request a office location preference change. How can I do this in a appropriate way? If do this through email, what should I say? And the most importantly, what will the recruiter think about my request? Will he/she reject me because of that? I will be really appreciate if you can give me some advice.

1. It will depend on your attitude and what the company needs. If you present your request with legitimate reasons, you may get what you request, but then again, you may not. If you take the job you must realize that the company will put you where they need you. If you can live with this... great. But, you may find that if you start on the job when you have proved yourself to be a good worker, dependable and trustworthy, you may get your request, but there are no guarantees. If you can't live with the possibility that they may say NO to your request, then politely decline the job. Be sure that you totally understand that they are the ones making the rules. Don't be a whiner and always be complaining that you didn't get your request. Ask and be prepared to hear no.
