It’s understandable to feel uncertain after receiving multiple acceptance offers! Whether you can back out of your commitment deposit usually depends on the school’s policy regarding deposits. Here are a few steps you can take:
Review the Policy: Check the acceptance materials or the school’s website for their deposit policy. Some schools may have a non-refundable deposit, while others might allow you to request a refund under certain circumstances.
Contact the Admissions Office: Reach out to the admissions office of the first school to explain your situation. They may be able to provide guidance and clarify your options.
Be Mindful of Deadlines: Make sure to act quickly, as there may be deadlines for backing out of your commitment or requesting a refund.
Consider Your Choices: If you decide to go with the second school, make sure to complete any necessary enrollment steps to secure your spot there.
Ultimately, open communication with both schools will be key as you navigate this decision. Good luck!
