I chose the wrong college

You should first consider EXACTLY why you chose the college and then think thoughtfully. If you feel that you made an absolute mistake then you should call admissions at your college of choice and explain it to them. They may still accept you but the aid that was previously offered (if any) may no longer be available. Also, you will loose your deposit at your other school and have to pay a new one.

Another draw back would be settling in. You may not get the classes you want or even housing but definitely sleep on it and then call.

I had the same problem and my other school did accept me and give me aid, granted it’s a College That Change Lives (40), and in my opinion they are VERY different than other colleges.
