Is it a bad idea to withdraw from my other option while negotiating financial aid? (CYMS Q)

[cranberrylimeade]

Hi y’all! I have been deciding between two schools and think I have made my decision. I would like to withdraw soon out of courtesy to the school and other applicants but am wondering the implications that may have.

I was accepted to two schools, if I withdraw from one can the school I am attending see that I only have one current acceptance? Should I wait to withdraw?

Thanks!

Wait til your FA goes through. Most WL people who will get in will get off the list after the commit to enroll deadline at the end of April regardless of you dropping rn.

There is no reason to use the CYMS tool until closer to April, unless one of your schools makes it a requirement.

Look, I applaud you for thinking of your fellow applicants, but you've grinded for years. You need to do what's best for you.

Now, once you're 100% sure you don't want to attend a med school, then yeah, withdraw. But it's OK to take some time.
