After being accepted to a program, how long do you have to confirm the acceptance before you lose your seat? I understand it might be different for different schools, and I saw that SCO gives 8 weeks. Is this about the same length for all the schools?
I'm asking specifically in regards to UCBSO. Since it's not rolling, they won't begin inviting for interviews until January. Since they don't actually interview until early February, and they obviously won't offer acceptances until after that date. I'm going on three interviews within the next month, and hypothetically, if I hear back positively from all three of those schools, would I need to confirm before even hearing back from UCBSO? Or potentially before I even know if I'll be invited for an interview?
On the same line of thought, can you change your mind once you've confirmed somewhere (I assume that means you'd lose whatever money you put down, but legally, can you break this contract)?
