<p>I'm trying to tell WashU that I don't want a spot on the wait list, but I can't find a place for me to do that. When I go to the online form that is on WashU's website, it's only about accepting the spot. I just sent the admissions office an e-mail saying that I didn't want a spot on the wait list. Will that work? If not, I guess I could always mail them a letter.</p>
<p>I suspect a lack of acceptance equals a decline. That is, by not accepting online or by returning the card, you are declining by default.</p>
<p>yeah I think you’re set, if the non-acceptance doesnt do it, then I’m sure the email did.</p>
<p>It is very simple. The only way you are placed on the WL is if you notify WashU that you wish to accept a spot on the WL. If you don’t take a proactive action you are not placed on the WL. You don’t have to do anything if you wish to decline the WL offer.</p>
