I've heard the argument that we should wait and see all the finanical aid offers before we make a decision. Truth is: I'm sure that many of us have already made up our mind.
I've released my other acceptances this week. I did it based on the school that I want to attend. Yeah, my state school is cheaper, we know that, but I also knew that I wasn't attending there.
I think, if you know you won't attend a school, then just release it. There are tons of people that are hoping to grab a seat at these schools. If you have 3 or 4 acceptances, that's bull. Release at least two and then make your decision on the other two after you get your finanical aid offers and do a second visit.
I ended up with four acceptances. I was holding three and decline the fourth. I got into BU last week and didn't accept their offer. I've also released two other ones this week. So, I know where I'm going. I hope that releasing these seats early will help others.
I encourage others to do the same.
