My son was admitted to Cornell and waitlisted by his other dream-college (MIT). He will hear from MIT in mid-May only.

Will accepting Cornell’s offer of admission as requested May 1 result in obligation to attend Cornell even if later MIT accepts him from wait-list?

Anyone else is in the similar situation, please?
