Bait and switch location for internship?

Hi. So I filled out an application for WM at a BB and got a superday invitation some weeks later. It specifically said it was located in Chicago but then in our pre interview coaching section the first thing out the coach's mouth is that the office is actually in deerfield (like 1.5 hours from the banks location in downtown Chicago) and then says the downtown office still has seats...so is this a normal thing? should I have searched harder?
