AllisonAL Posted February 21, 2017 Share Posted February 21, 2017 I was accepted into NYU MSW program, a mere two weeks after I submitted my application. NYU only gave me 4 weeks to accept or decline the offer. They ask for a non-refundable deposit of $300. I am still waiting to hear back from every single other school I've applied to. Can I pay the deposit, and later, perhaps, decide to go elsewhere? Will other schools know of my acceptance? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TakeruK Posted February 21, 2017 Share Posted February 21, 2017 I don't think it's possible for anyone to force you to attend any school. You will likely lose your deposit though. This is a possible option but I would ask NYU to extend the deadline first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When George Mason accepted me I gave a call to my first choice school asking them if they might be able to let me know sooner than later because I needed to let GMU know my decision. They were fantastic and got back to me after the holiday weekend with my acceptance. I was scared to ask at first but then figured I needed to make some choices. I think that schools know this about us and are quite gracious when they are able to. I encourage you to call your first choice school and just ask. Good luck!
