jawn_doe Posted January 25, 2012 Report Share Posted January 25, 2012 I have my acceptance at UK and they need to see proof of funds by May 1, and final day to accept is May 15. I got an interview for U of T the other day and OMSAS says that acceptances are sent out May 15. Is it still possible to refuse UK if I hear good news from U of T? Just wondering how that all plays out... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Comeon Posted January 25, 2012 Report Share Posted January 25, 2012 No one is going to force you to go if you do accept UK. As long as you do not have to pay tuition on or before May 15, you are fine. Besides, acceptance info. for Canadian schools should come out before 5 pm and you can solidify/deny your acceptance based on what you hear.

You don't need to pay anything until near the start of the school year and you can definitely withdraw after May 15. May 15 is the day when you can be sitting on only one American acceptance. It may be worth asking UK about though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

keith_015 Posted January 29, 2012 Report Share Posted January 29, 2012 Secure the funding, and tell them your plan (no official docs required by them at that point - that comes with Visa issues). Worse case scenario, you cancel the funding if you W/D. That's what I did. I W/D in June and lost my deposit. $100 harm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
