[quote=Anonymous]We applied to several HSs from a K-12 school. Depending on the acceptances (or lack of), we would have stayed at the current school. We talked to the school and they did not require us to pay the deposit as long as we told them ASAP when we knew our decision. They said what they didn’t want are the parents who pay the deposit, know it’s not refundable and therefore wait until the June/July full tuition commitment date to tell the school that they won’t be attending. They said at that time they are pulling from the wait list of applicants who mostly have already committed to another school. Telling the school ASAP allows them to make an offer to a different pool of students. So, talk to the school. Good luck.[/quote]
