  1. I've decided to accept my current (only) offer to a PhD program. What's the worst that'll happen, I get off the waitlist at the other school?

      Are you familiar with the CGS agreement (http://www.cgsnet.org/april-15-resolution)? Worst case scenario you can go back on your decision (gently) if the other school appeals to you more. But if you're really conflicted, waiting can't hurt.

      I'm really nervous this might happen to me. I don't know for sure if I'm on the waitlist for my top choice right now but it's looking possible. At least rejection would give me closure and let me accept my other offer. This process is such an emotional rollercoaster :(

      @Vulpes I sort of wish the other school had just rejected me instead of leaving me in limbo post-interview.

      @Pastel, thank you for the link. I knew the April 15 deadline existed but couldn't find accurate details. I do want to get the ball rolling if the first school winds up being my only acceptance. I know retracting the acceptance is a sticky situation, but I'm glad it's not unheard of.
