Thanks for the help! Your opinions helped me a lot. Actually, I've been notified via admission system at first, and POIs of all three schools reached out to me few days later. Thanks to your advice, I've decided to send short messages Especially, thanks @MarthUser for the template !

Long time lurker here. But I appreciate this forum and the posters sincerely, and it's been really helpful. I wish you all the best. Might be a silly question , but when you finally made your decision and finally accepted the offer, what have you done with *the other schools* you didn't go? I applied to 4 schools(Master of REL) and got three admissions. Although I'm choosing and heading to one of them because they offered me a full-tuition remission award, I'm still thinking "isn't there a more wise way of declining offer, rather than just click 'DECLINE'? " I know. Maybe I'm overreacting, but I'm thinking about the future that I would face within three years. I would apply to doctoral program soon, and I will contact and talk with the same POI again. So this worries me. Although I'll be heading to somewhere else, at the same time, I don't want to hurt their feelings by any chances. Plus, all POIs were really amazing during this period. So my question is, when you decline admission offer, what is the wisest way to do it?
