Canceling OCI Interviews the Night Before

YHSCCN, after a lot of thought this weekend, decided don't want to do OCI or work at a large firm.
School policy requires canceling at least 2 business days before. Not sure if it would be better to bail on the interviews so the interviewer/firm's time is not wasted and possibly another student can get the spot or go in order to prevent the school from looking bad? Besides the expected kickback from career services, are there any other consequences (disciplinary, etc) that could result from bailing last minute?
Thanks

Why not just email the CSO dean tonight and find out? He/she may tell you that you must email each firm individually to tell them you've decided not to screen with them anymore (a friend at my school did something similar).
Talk to the school, not some randoms on TLS. Also, don't interview if you're honestly not interested in interviewing.

In addition to the above, you might as well just do the interviews if you have everything prepared (or even if you don't). It can only open doors for you, especially in case you change your mind a couple months later. Even if you do not intend to ever accept any offers and assuming you haven't done a ton of interviews already, practice like this can be invaluable for whatever you end up wanting to do.

It might be good to do the interviews just for practice. And CSO is going to be pissed.
