You're linking deposits and mission statements? Really, dude?
I am 90% sure the point of high DO deposits is to discourage people from holding seats who are actually just holding out for an MD spot. Deposits get credited into your tuition, hence the fact that it's a deposit.
Never thought about preventing people from waiting for DO spots.
I'm just thankful I have the opportunity to put down an admission deposit. There are many applicants each cycle who would love to have this problem.
