Declining an offer

Does anyone have any advice on what to say in an email declining an admissions offer (particularly a very generous one)? This is a lot more difficult than I anticipated. 

 

Sorry to post what I'm sure is a topic that has been discussed previously, but I'm having trouble finding relevant posts. 

 

 

Thank you!

Programs are used to having people decline (even really good ones with amazing funding packages). Just tell them that you appreciate their offer, but you won't be accepting it. You can give more details about why, but you shouldn't feel obligated to do so. A polite, short email is fine.
