College Deposit! Please Help!!!

<p>I was accepted to a college with rolling admissions recently and was rewarded a very generous scholarship. In order to secure my scholarship, my parents thought it would be a good idea to pay the deposit. I don't know where else I may get in yet but I already paid this deposit. Was this wrong? I'm strongly considering attending this university, but I need to see where else I get in before I make my final decision. Can you pay a college deposit then decide not to go?</p>

<p>I’m going to pass on this one, sorry.</p>

<p>Yes, of course you can pay the deposit and decide not to go. At worst, you’d lose the deposit.</p>
