You should have until May 1 to make this decision, according to the NACAC guidelines. I know Elon wants a decision so they can continue to work on their entering class, but they know the guidelines, and if they did not clearly tell you about your right to request an extension I am very disappointed.

Formally request an extension. The specific language is:
Quote:
When You Are Offered Admission:
• You have the right to wait until May 1 to respond to an offer of admission
and/or financial aid.
• Colleges that request commitments to offers of admission and/or
financial assistance prior to May 1 must clearly offer you the opportunity
to request (in writing) an extension until May 1. They must
grant you this extension and your request may not jeopardize your
status for admission and/or financial aid.
• Candidates admitted under early decision programs are a recognized
exception to the May 1 deadline.
