Use 4/30 to leverage coming off of waitlist?

[Ehwic]

Since april 30 is the last day to hold multiple acceptances, would an applicant be able to use that day as leverage to get off of an waitlist to another school through stating that they would withdraw from all other schools they've been accepted to?

From applicant to school at which applicant is on the wait list: "You'd better accept me now or else I'll go somewhere else!"... 🤔😕

Daaangit I figured it wouldn't make a difference. I guess you can say my desperation is kicking in haha.

Family matters. Not complaining just really want to stay in the area.

If you have multiple acceptances but really want to stay in the area, write one short letter of intent where you state how much you'd prefer to go to This School over the others which have accepted you and why you'd be a great fit. Just One letter.

And good luck --

Only if you have an accept to a Harvard/Stanford class school, and you really want to go to a lesser school.

Drexel doesn't care if you have an accept at VCU.
