Accepting an offer

Hey, so I know this has been answered before a lot on the MD forums, and I think I know the answer, but I just want to make sure. I got an offer from a school (hooray) and in the letter it says "please send us a letter to indicate your acceptance of our offer." I know for MD-only you accept all of the offers you get, usually + deposit, and then withdraw all but one come May 15th. Is it the same here? The letter doesn't give me a time frame on when to send the letter, nor do I have to pay a deposit... so should I still send a letter saying I like the program, hope to attend, but don't know for sure, or something? Or should I just call and ask to be sure?

Thanks for your help. Hopefully now that offices are back open, we'll start to hear more and more!

From what I understand from reading the AMCAS traffic rules you are allowed to hold on to multiple MD/PhD acceptances until April 30 at which time you have to make a final decision and from then on you can only hold one acceptance.

Either decline or accept their offer and say that you are looking forward to the revisit. Do more if you are actually interested, such as ask to be put in touch with specific researchers you may actually be considering working with this coming summer.
