This may be strange, but does anyone else find it hard to decline offers? Of course I am going through and declining them so the seats can be offered to other students. But, it's just bittersweet regardless if I wished to attend the university or not.
 
Yeah I feel really bad especially since I tried talking to admissions for the past year to increase my chances of getting in. It helped, but now it sucks to decline them.

Just be very professional and grateful in the email, so if you need to apply to their school again for GPR etc, you'll still have a good image with them.

Think about it, they've got no problem declining thousands of people. So you shouldn't feel bad about declining one school, lol.
