Double check the wording--do they really say "commit to enroll," or just that you have to pay your deposit and hit "plan to enroll" on 4/30? If you pay the nonrefundable deposit, and you say you plan to enroll, I'd honestly be shocked if they didn't hold that spot for you.Hi,
I have been blessed this cycle with 2 A and 2 WL. Unfortunately for me, both As have a CTE deadline of April 30th. My dream school is one of the waitlists I am on, and I’m kind of freaking out. If most waitlist movement is after April 30, am I screwed? I don’t want to lose my acceptances so I will be forced to CTE on the deadline but do I have any options? LOI? Phone calls? I feel like the WL is almost pointless in that sense. Even more so this year with the amount of WL going around.
Thanks so much for any words.
But double-check. Clearly you can't decline an acceptance in the hopes that you'll get off a waitlist if they really do make you commit that early.
