Accepting Grad School Admission Offer

<p>I have posted this yesterday on the Graduate School forum, but decide to post it here since parents on this forum have answers to everything.</p>

<p>I thought most grad schools have April 15th as the deadline for accepting offers, but some schools seem to rush the acceptance decision. Do you think March 15th is too early to expect a decision while one may not have received responses from other schools yet? What is the best way to handle an early deadline while still waiting for other offers? To call school with 3/15 deadline and ask if they can extend it, if so, will the school have a negative impression of you? What is the most polite way to ask? Thanks.</p>

<p>Don’t know, and it might depend on the type of grad school. My d. received all her decisions and offers well before March 15th,</p>
