<p>Hi,
I luckily got accepted to A&D :)
I am super happy about this.
But I am just concerned about Respond Now portion.
When I clicked it, it says Accept Decision or Decline Decision.
Of course I will definitely go to UM for sure, but I am still waiting upon other schools. Just in case.
So if I don't respond until April, will it affect me in any cases ?
like the Respond Now click button will disappear or something and I won't be able to attend Michigan (sounds ridiculous but I am worried)
And also the deposit is due on May 1st right? so does that mean I can wait until April to pay deposit fee? UM website says to deposit quickly for secured spot or something. :(
Please help me ~~~! I am like new at these stuffs and don't wanna miss the chance to attend great school as Michigan</p>
<p>Deposit is due May 1, just like all other universities. That information should have been in your initial acceptance email.</p>
<p>“Of course I will definitely go to UM for sure, but I am still waiting upon other schools. Just in case.”</p>
<p>ys00310, your statement above is contradictory. If you are going to Michigan for sure, why wait? </p>
<p>At any rate, as Kyle points out, you do not have to pay your enrollment deposit until May 1.</p>
<p>Thank you guys for helpful comments.
Ya I guess I should not wait :)</p>
<p>I think you need to have your deposit in before you can sign up for orientation. Sign up for orientation was early April last year. I don’t think there is a benefit to paying the deposit before then.</p>
<p>YS, do you have any idea if you can actually afford Umich? Wait until you see all your financial packages to commit to any school. They cannot/will not revoke the decision (unless you do REALLY REALLY poorly on your last semester.)</p>
<p>Everything else is just nonsense to get early commitments. There is NO advantage, including housing.</p>
