i have a question: what do you do if you are accepted by one program (U Mass Amherst) which has given you a deadline to accept in the next week...but are stil waiting for responses from 2 schools?
what would happen if i were to accept the first place, and then if i get into the other two schools and decided to go there instead, take BACK MY ACCEPTANCE??
i just don't want to be in a position where i jeopardize my acceptance because i'm waiting on two other schools who may not even accept me......
is anyone else in this position?
and U Mass has only told me there's a strong likelihood of giving me TAships for all 3 years, but cannot guarantee....what is that?? aren't they supposed to offer you some kind of guarantee/financial package when they give you an acceptance?
