send the email so that they can give the spot to someone else sooner. It's the nice thing to do. I don't think it matters though, either way works.

Agree with the above posters...send a quick e-mail thanking the school for their offer of admission but you're going to decline (no need to give a lot of detail). It's the polite thing to do.
