<p>I was recently accepted to my first choice school, and put down my deposit last night (housing is done by that date). I have been accepted to a few schools, and am waiting to hear back from 3 more. Should I, or do I have to withdraw my pending applications? I don't want to screw anything up for myself or future applicants from my school. Thanks!</p>
<p>You don’t have to do anything. The big no-no is sending in deposits at more than one school, but you’re not doing that. When you apply somewhere ED you are required to withdraw your other apps if accepted, but I don’t think you are talking about and ED acceptance. In the regular decision cycle you get a bunch of acceptances and then send in one deposit, letting the others expire. It is nice to send the schools where you will not be enrolling a note to that effect but it is not required because they will figure it out when they haven’t heard back from you by the response deadline. Congrats on getting into your first choice school!</p>
