Is this considered double depositing??

Applying to College
1

<p>Hi, I've been on this forum for a while and usually I am lucky enough to find all the answers to my questions... but just to make sure I decided to make a new thread.</p>

<p>Is this considered double depositing?</p>

<p>I was accepted as a Spring transfer student to College 1. Since I am a Spring transfer, I wanted to make sure I get housing so I sent in my enrollment deposit + housing deposit. </p>

<p>2 weeks later, I was accepted into College 2 (My 1st choice). I didn't think my application went through because I did not get any emails or mails (moved recently). I sent an email to College 1 to withdraw my application 2 days ago. Am I allowed to pay my enrollment fee for College 2, now? Or is this considered double depositing? I filled out the Common App for both colleges.</p>

<p>Thank you!</p>

<p>No. It is more like accepting admission at one place, and then getting off a waitlist somewhere else. Pay the fees for College 2. If you don’t get a confirmation from College 1 that they got your “Thanks but I’ve changed my mind.” email, it would be a kindness to give them a quick phone call.</p>

<p>Good luck at College 2!</p>

<p>Thank you for the reply! I did call College 1 and they told me it will take a week for the withdrawing process to be finished. </p>

<p>So, there shouldn’t be any problem if I pay the enrollment fee for College 2?</p>

<p>That’s a relief.</p>

<p>Thank you!</p>

<p>It’s OK to pay the enrollment fee now at College 2 because College 1 has received the information and is processing everything. By the time College 2 processes your check or e-payment, everything will probably be long finished at College 1.</p>

<p>Really, don’t worry about this. A Double-Deposit situation is when a student deliberately chooses to hold spots open at more than one school. That is not what you are doing.</p>
