Is committing to a University a done deal?

<p>Hey,</p>

<p>I am still waiting on a University from Canada to send their decision back. It is likely that the decision comes back after May 1st. I am very certain that this University will accept me, but my parents are worried that they may not. I have already been accepted to some other Universities, but I'd much, much rather go to the one in Canada. If I commit to the US University by May 1st, does that mean I HAVE to attend it, or possible for me to still attend the Canadian one, given that I get accepted?</p>

<p>Thanks,

<p>No, but you lose the deposit you paid towards the U.S. school.</p>
