Already signed NLI.. but..

<p>I already signed a NLI for a UC and confirmed that I will be attending that University in the fall. I really want to go to UC Davis, but I think it is too late to accept there. I don't know what to do. Any suggestions?</p>

<p>Why did you sign a NLI for a school you would not be happy attending? Do you no longer want to play your sport? If that is the case, you need to find out immediately if you can still accept UC Davis by calling admissions. And then you must call the coach at your NLI school and tell him/her you will not be attending. Hopefully, the coach will be able to fill your spot on the roster at this late date.</p>

<p>Your other posts indicate you were accepted to both–

And you signed with Irvine?
You made a legal commitment with Irvine if you signed a NLI last yr.</p>

<p>You need to
1- talk with you parents
2- grow up and stand by your word–you signed a contract.</p>

<p>If you’re still interested in playing your sport there may be eligibility issues if you change schools … I do not know the rules but if you’ve already sent in a deposit for your slot at yoru first school you could be considered a transfer at this point for athletics … I’d suggest checking out [The</a> Official Web Site of the NCAA - NCAA.org - NCAA.org](<a href=“http://www.ncaa.org%5DThe”>http://www.ncaa.org) to check (or even better call the ncaa) so you understand the athletic implications of switching at this point.</p>

<p>Unless, UC Irvine releases you from the NLI, you have to play your sport at that school. If you intend to not play a sport this year, you can transfer to UC Davis for academic purposes. However, the consequences of that decision may have implications for your future athletic career at UC Davis. NLI is a legal contract, and the school is holding all the cards at this point. I would think very hard about you really want to do for the next four years. After you think about it, consult an adult figure(s) in your life before making your next move. You need to start taking responsibility for your future, and not make quick decisions. Good luck.</p>

<p>The NLI commits you for one year. That may seem like forever right now, but it’s not. Fulfill your commitment and then consider transferring–if you still want to. If you give your best effort and commit to making friends and enjoying your time there, you may find you want to stay.</p>
