When to decide on what school...

[Stratilo]

For those holding more than one acceptance, when is it necessary to decide on a specific school? Is there a certain date when we have to tell the other(s) schools that we won't be attending in the fall? Will they kick anyone out soon for not deciding?

Thanks!

Although if you know your not going to go to one school, you should tell them as soon as you have made that decision.

I read somewhere that you shouldn't hold multiple acceptances for over 2 weeks. I don't know if this is a formal rule or just a courtesy to the schools so they can start pulling from the waitlist.

..Generally it's considered rude to hold more than 2 acceptances at a time...

I don't know about you guys but until I see my financial aid packages I'm not making any decisions.

Thanks everyone for your input. Don't worry, I only accepted two offers. But I, like some others here, don't want to make the tough decision of picking the school until I get some financial aid info.

And, as soon as I decide, I will withdraw from the other to allow those waiting in agony to be pulled up to join the class of 2006!!
