Then we will be future classmates as I am going there too!

Being on a waiting list for my top choice and also having an acceptance, I think schools really can not demand students to make a decision before April 15th. Even though I have been suffering, waiting to hear back from my top choice, I still think those accepted should be given the opportunity to compare their choices. I also got a similar letter from my acceptance saying I had two weeks to make a decision or I had to request an extension. As I was requesting an extension, they asked me to commit to attending if my waitlisted school did not give me an offer. Although this was my initial plan, I resented the request! There is a resolution about this !! Schools cannot demand commitment before the April 15th deadline, and that is final. Also, if I may say so, even if it's after the April 15th deadline, if your top choice gives you an offer after the 15th, I would still take it and drop any other offers I have accepted. Graduate school is 5-7 years. What would you do? Actually I have a question about this. If you want to accept an offer after the 15th and you've already accepted another offer, do you have to get written approval to decline the offer before accepting another? I remember reading this in the graduate school resolution.

So, Bean1989, what did you decide to do in the end? Or have you decided yet?
