Hi everyone, I have been in a situation which violates the Resolution of CGS and I am seeking advice. I had received the official admission offer (an offer of financial support) letter from X University. The PhD coordinator of X University had continuously contacted me asking for a definite answer to the offer. The coordinator also pressured me for an answer by informing the situation of the wait-listed student right behind me and asked me to disclose which school's result I was waiting for (by giving him the exact school name). When I told the coordinator that I was waiting for another school's results and asked him to give me a little more time to decide, he pressured on me by saying "It is unfair to give you more time. You would choose the Y University over X University if you get an offer there". The coordinator told me that he would withdraw my offer. I realized this is wrong and contacted to the department chair and the director of X University but they only told me that the offer is still valid as they have to follow the school's rules but asked me to go to another school. X University is one of the CGS member institutions that indicated its support of the Resolution. "Students are under no obligation to respond to offers of financial support prior to April 15; Earlier deadlines for acceptance of such offers violate the intent of this Resolution." However, my right to decide until April 15th was deprived. I had been pressured to respond to the offer continuously and was told that my admission offer was no longer available even though I have no reason to be disqualified. In addition, I was forced to give up the offer by myself even though the offer is valid now and X University did not even apologize for this situation. What should I do?.. I would appreciate any suggestions or advice regarding this matter, thank you!
