<p>I got accepted into Amherst and Brown, and chose the latter. How should I let Amherst know?</p>
<p>You don’t. If Amherst doesn’t get the big check (deposit) they’ll figure it out.</p>
<p>isn’t there a reply card in the packet that says you are declining and then you fill in where you are going? you should let them know. </p>
<p>only one of the five schools that my son declined did not include a reply card. He called them and they said to send in an e mail stating that he would not be matriculating there.</p>
