i also got the R from vandy! realistically i know it can’t all be good news, so i feel a little silly saying this one and michigan kinda hurt🥲

thank you!! and thank you for the response! the school did even say they’d like to know as soon as possible haha, i just feel bad/sad turning them down lol oh wow i had no idea, my bad! that is really lame :/

what is the protocol for letting schools know you don’t plan on attending? i’ve been fortunate enough to get 3 acceptances, one of which I am pretty certain I won’t be attending for various reasons. i’d like to let them know soon so someone else can get off the WL, but what do i say? is it rude to say no this early? should i let them know it just comes down to time/finances? also, i have a lot of experience with law school apps, and in that realm, it’s common advice that you don’t turn any offers down until you’ve heard back from all your schools. is there any reason why i would want to wait and see before i decline an offer?

i don’t think it’s a faux pas at all! they should (hopefully) want to do everything they can to get you to attend. i have no idea whether you can expect an extension, but hopefully they’re cognizant of the 4/15 deadline other schools have

look up the council of grad schools april 15 resolution and see if the school is listed. if they are, then i believe they have to give you until april 15

congratulations!!!!! amazing news!!!!

i got in for poetry:)
