Thanks, that makes sense. Don't think specifications will matter all that much for me so definitely will lean more towards comfort

I put down two seat deposits. Should I withdraw from the more expensive (and thus less likely) option today since schools can access the double deposit list soon? I was considering waiting until the second deposit date in case more money is freed up, but I don't want to irritate the first school.

Isn't being double deposited and them seeing you how you get your leverage?

I'm the opposite! I stress about phone calls and leave them off until the very last minute, but find comfort in emails because I can edit it all I want before I send it off.

I've never had a reason to call before, just to submit LOCIs, etc.

For anyone needing a new machine and wants a surfacebook or surface pro device and has an old mac lying around, you can trade in the Mac for up to $850 credit (supposedly the devices are valued generously) and 10% off the full price of device.

May go that route and figured I'd share!

Has anyone else been a serial ghoster this cycle? I don't think I formally "withdrew" from a single school. Not even the ones that gave me unsolicited scholarship bumps or the ones who provided generous ASD reimbursements. Now I feel like I'm on some sort of blacklist where all the rude/lazy/unprofessional applicants go. I also feel like I have bad waitlist karma. Sigh.

have you committed to a school yet? if there are schools that you 100% know you wont go to, its better to formally withdraw because it reduces delays for other applicants decisions

It takes like 5 minutes to withdraw from 10 schools. You can send them the exact same e-mail if you want, from "Dear Admissions Committee..." down. You should just do it.

I felt really bad that I forgot to withdraw from Michigan. I got an email from them asking to confirm I wasn't coming and I apologized for the late response. Withdrew from everywhere else.

Does it count each one (ie, 113 people would vote 4 times to get ~550 votes)? Still way more than we currently have over there though.

Everyone should go subscribe to the page in the C/O forum soon, we're gonna have to get out of the waiters index
