Hi,
Important note - The SEVIS fee is $350 and you need to carry its payment receipt during your visa interview. SEVIS fees have nothing to do with scheduling your visa appointment. You can pay it anytime(to be on the safer side pay at least 5 business days before the Interview) before your visa interview.
Since it's July, it is late to book a slot. Book the slot at any location where the slot is available. 
Yes, you can change the university after booking your visa slot. I think the article below is extremely relevant to your case. You can find the exact steps to change university in the following link:
