Hi all!
This site has been a constant source of valuable information for me, especially this cycle, and I am hoping for some insight into my current situation.
I was accepted to MSUCOM this past fall and I am so grateful for this. I would be so excited and happy to attend here, however I'm conflicted as I am currently on the waitlist at Central (CMed) and Wayne State. I understand that the majority of waitlist movement occurs after mid-late May, after applicants holding multiple acceptances decline all offers but one. However, MSUCOM has orientation in early June.
I am torn between wanting to look for roommates and housing, and generally prepare, and trying to avoid getting stuck in a lease if my plans change. I have already had to pay a deposit and a few other costs towards attending MSUCOM. Many people in my life do not understand why I would wait until weeks before school starts to make a decision and some consider it reckless as I have no idea what my chances are for making it off of either waitlist. Thankfully, I live in MI so all of the schools are relatively close to home and housing for the summer semester would not be an issue, but I don't know how long I should hold off on making other arrangements.
At what point should I begin making plans to attend MSUCOM? Or do I not make any plans until absolutely necessary?
