@jb2028: So can I withdrawn BU after getting off from Vandy, and withdrawing Vandy after getting off from Columbia? Totally regretting for two times
LuckyDog
20:07
Just make an assumption
jb2028
20:09
@LuckyDog: Read the fine print for every school, but yes
jb2028
20:09
Almost certainly

The "If you receive new information prior to matriculation prompting you to reconsider your decision, please contact the Admissions Office immediately." language I quoted earlier is there so 1. the school can try to work around any solvable issues (e.g., a much better aid offer elsewhere) 2. the school knows if you end up going elsewhere, so they can offer the spot to someone on the waitlist
jb2028
20:11
What they don't want is people deciding to go elsewhere in May and ghosting their original school in August
jb2028
20:11
(Since in this scenario, someone else gets a waitlist offer and has to change their plans in August)
LuckyDog
20:12
Gotchu, so the contact is necessary
jb2028
20:14
At this school, based on their particular wording, if someone has already committed (the language above is from their "intent to enroll" form)
LuckyDog
20:14
@jb2028: Do you agree with Spivey that this cycle will have more WL movements?
jb2028
20:15
If you get into School B off the waitlist in June, School A has no way to know you're going elsewhere unless you tell them (since you've already committed/deposited) - hence the language
LuckyDog
20:16
Yeah that make sense, my second deposit is in the early June
jb2028
20:17
@LuckyDog: I have no idea tbqh. Waitlist movement will depend on schools' yield coming in below projections, either overall or for certain types of admits. We have little to no public data to gauge if that will happen.
jb2028
20:19
Spivey has one type of nonpublic data (conversations with his contacts in admissions offices), but his prediction was also months ago. Things may have changed.
LuckyDog
20:22
Thank u very much! Long wait..

I'm in a similar position to LuckyDog's. Deposited at BU. Would prefer to go elsewhere if possible.

@jb2028: Thank you for the insight. But when you say "read the fine print for every school," where exactly is the fine print? Is it in an admissions offer? Buried somewhere on their website? Located somewhere on admitted students' page?

@KnowledgeableRitzyWasp: I'm so happy there's a llama emoji haha.
[] ararara
21:55
@CanWeTalkAboutTerrenceMalick: that's a good point if you haven't received anything from school
[] ararara
21:55
's regarding the deposit/can't find it then maybe just reach out and ask them
jb2028
22:10
@CanWeTalkAboutTerrenceMalick: The school's deposit page will list anything you're agreeing to when you commit/deposit. Most of these forms are brief and the relevant info should be easy to find.
jb2028
22:11
I use "fine print" as shorthand for "that particular school's language you agree to when you commit/deposit," but it is not actually fine print/hard to find
jb2028
22:14
Even if it's a terrible policy (a few years ago, Notre Dame overadmitted and sent out an email telling admits their deposit deadline was now "when we reach our maximum number of deposits.”)
