Cross-Posted: Deciding on a College


Recommended Posts

DD got into several colleges and is now in the process of deciding where to attend.All of the colleges she was accepted into offered a financial package, and most want her to log in to an account and accept the award.  I am not sure of protocol here, so I have a few questions:

1.  For those colleges she has eliminated from consideration, should she ignore the "accept the award" link, or write an email to decline the offer to admissions/financial aid?

2.  Deadline for putting a deposit down is May 1.  Is there an advantage to putting down a deposit early?

3.  Has anyone ever put a deposit down on two colleges (one as a backup) in case something goes awry at the last minute with their first choice?  Besides forfeiting $200, what are the positive and negative implications of this for her?
