compscian Posted June 12, 2015 Posted June 12, 2015 Hello everyone, I was admitted to both of my top choice programs, say school A and B. I ended up choosing A over B due to primarily non-academic reasons. The situation is that school B is better research fit, but I felt very lonely there. My country is not very well represented at school B which was the factor that swayed my decision towards school A. Being an international student, I was unable to visit, and hence based my judgement on heresay. School A has quite close connections with my undergrad school, and hence I knew people there and felt more at home. However, now I feel I really screwed up. I like the research at school B much more. Though I like the POIs at school A, I really feel that B is a much better research fit. Is there any chance I can change my decision now, since its about 2 months past the April 15 deadline? Has anyone attempted this before? Please share your thoughts. I want to first get a thorough understanding of the repercussions before attempting something like this. I am going through a mini depression phase because of this decision.
