Ok so I decided to piggy-back on this thread so I can ask a similar question. Some of the responses have already answered it so maybe I just need reassurance.
I applied to two grad schools, one a state school and one an amazing UC.
State school-accepted
UC-waitlisted.
So I emailed the state school to tell them that the window that the UC gave me for a final answer was between April 16th- June 1st. State school was all-"by the time they tell you, our offer will no longer be valid."
So I accepted to the state school with the back up plan of rescinding if the UC decides to accept me.
A. is this a possible option.
B. am I terrible person?
C. What will happen? They haven't asked for a deposit yet.
I feel awful but I realllllllllyyyyyyyyyy want the UC.
