Is it possible to get an extension on a deposit? 1500 bucks is a crap laod of nonrefundable money. Was wondering before I empty my pockets.

Ive been accepted to UNECOM and NYCOM both of which are excellent schools, but still have more interviews. Im leaning toward NYCOM, however the 1500 deposit is huge, whereas the UNECOM deposit is 500 (non refundable) followed by 1000 60 days later that is refundable (giving me enough time to hear from the rest).

Where else are you interviewing? I think it is possible but highly unlikely. Check with the schools to see what they say. If you can't, then I guess you have to put the deposit down on the one you like the most and hope that you don't change your mind. Good luck!😀 :luck:
