So Columbia is asking for a 2k non-refundable seat deposit due Dec. 31st. Any clue on why they are asking for such a big commitment so early on?

Members don't see this ad.
 
they want to make sure people who put down the deposit are the ones that will be attending the school.
 
Yeah, financially they need a full class so if you choose a different school in late April then their screwed. $2k is their way of locking you in.

Hey it could be worst. BU requires a 3K deposit. Isn't that insane???

actually no, the school doesn't get screwed at all, there is a wait list with plenty of kids dying to get in, so the only party who get's screwed is the one who puts down the deposit then goes elsewhere. :cool:
