Hello guys, I hope the application cycle is treating you well.

I have 2 schools that I've been accepted to, and 1 school that I am waitlisted at. The school I am waitlisted at is my top choice and I will accept an offer if admitted.

That being said, is still courteous to mark the school I "plan to enroll" in based on my acceptances or should I leave this blank until I hear back from my waitlist school?

Thanks for your help!

It's not really about courtesy. Until your waitlist school offers you a seat, you need to plan on going to one of the two schools that has accepted you. I would select "plan to enroll" and then proceed with FAFSA, immunizations, etc. If you get off the waitlist at your top choice you will already have some of the requisite matriculation legwork done.

Thanks for the clarification! I will go ahead and do so.
