ATMIT Posted March 28, 2017 Share Posted March 28, 2017 Hi,I received an admit for the Ph.D. program, with a research assistantship from university A. I have to accept/decline the offer before April 15th. I am also waitlisted for admission in my dream university B which will announce its decision by end of April. If I accept the offer, from the university A and later receive an admit from the ambitious one I have to obtain a written release from the university A before accepting the other offer.Will it be a problem to get such release, and will it affect my career in future?Following URL gives the terms and conditions of accepting the offer.http://cgsnet.org/april-15-resolutionPlease provide your suggestion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rising_star Posted April 2, 2017 Share Posted April 2, 2017 In most cases, it isn't a problem. In your case, I would wait until the absolute last minute to accept the assistantship at University A. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bird of Passage Posted April 11, 2017 Share Posted April 11, 2017 @ATMITAsk University A to extend the decision deadline. It's a common practice. I just asked my university to extent it. I explained that I was waiting for the response from other school and they said yes, it was not a problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
