You might want to check and see if you need to decline via a portal. I know I needed to decline offers last round and some were online while others had a form that needed to be filled out and sent in.
I would suggest that you construct each email individually. Thank them for their offer and kindly let them know you have decided to go elsewhere. If it is a program that offers post-doc positions, maybe you could mention that you hope to continue a positive relationship with the program and indicate that you may apply to the post-doc position in the future. I think individualizing the email and keeping future possibilities open is professional and would be good strategizing on your part.Thanks for your nice advice, very good! Then I am going to write e-mails case-by-case, I guess.
Totally agree with the positive communication strategy (actually not only strategizing but also being polite), will do soon!

Do someone know how to write an e-mail to decline several offers?
Are there any rules?

This is my safe choice, yet also very happy to get admitted into.

Can someone elaborate on what you got from Brown? personal letters or an email to check the portal?
Hey! I can answer that!
I first got an e-mail from graduate school asking me to check the portal, then I saw the official decision letter of acceptance.
Just now, I received a letter from sociology department telling more about the funding and the organization of recruitment week (March 13th).

Brown admitted! With 5-year funding and first year fellowship!!
Anyone more familiar with Brown Sociology style? I heard that it's a small one.
BTW: Somebody know why I couldn't add my result into the result page? I am using IMAC and safari, I have also tried chrome. The verification code just doesn't show!

Hey, congrats! I also received an offer from Penn State! One question, did the letter state the program was "Sociology and Demography"?
It's Sociology on the letter! Sorry for the ambiguous information.
But I will definitely go for the dual degree if I go there.

I will claim another acceptance from Penn State (sociology and demography) !!
Since I am an international student, the procedure might be longer. I did interview on 1.12 and 1.13. And I got an e-mail yesterday from DGS saying that my official offer was on the way and she told me in advance because she didn't want me to feel worried. Also received another very nice letter from a current phd student providing help.
I am so thrilled at this time. And expecting more to come!

Happy Chinese New Year to everyone!!
I have just received my official acceptance letter from UNC-Chapel Hill sociology department on 1/26. So thrilled!
Expecting more to come. Good Luck to everyone!
