Hedge Fund Conflict of Interest

Hi guys! I'm part-time interning at a L/S Hedge fund this semester and I needed opinions on a potential conflict of interest... I'm also interviewing for an on campus organization at my school that manages a long-only part of our endowment (I would be an analyst covering a sector) in addition to interviewing at another off-campus student organization that uses an L/S strategy in investing(when I join I would be in an education program they have for 6 months but still able to pitch stocks). Should I withdraw from my interviews at the latter or former? How bad do you think this conflict of interest is? 

Thanks!!!
