Is it common/acceptable to send a letter of intent but then say that if I don't hear back by a certain day I have to move on?
I am on the waitlist at a school that most commonly sees a lot of WL movement in early May. However, there comes a point where I don't want to be blindsided then or perhaps closer to when school starts and have to scramble to find housing etc. I like the idea of being able to know where I am going for a good amount of time and pick out an ideal place to live, etc.
I get that this can probably look like I don't really love the school if I am willing to withdraw but for the reasons above I just don't want to have a last-minute scramble when classes are approaching. Anyone have any insight?
