Overlapping internships - Vacation as a solution?

Hey everyone,

Got very fortunate and received an offer for a Q2 internship (April-June) and for a summer internship (mid june-mid august). I would love to do both, but there is unfortunately a 2 week overlap. I have 5-6 days of vacation in each internship so thought I could do the following: take one week off from the Q2 internship so that I can do the mandatory training at the summer internship, then, go back to the Q2 internship whilst taking my 5 days off from the summer internship.

Timing wise, this would solve the overlap issue. However, I am unsure if the firms would be open to this. Does anyone know if banks are usually open to such arrangement (one firm is a hedge fund and the other is an EB).

I haven't accepted any offer yet and would like to communicate this with both parties before going forward with any legal docs...

Dumbass idea

edit: OP your only real option is to ask to adjust the start date of one of them. I doubt either of them would (but I don't know the firms so) but it's only actual way to be able to do both. Otherwise you're just going to have to drop one
