<p>Are you sure you are not “supposed to?” Because I thought deposit was ALWAYS non-binding. Otherwise, waitlist system will not work. You deposit to a college you want to attend before the due date, and when you are notified that you got off the waitlist, you remove all your app materials from the college you previously sent the deposit to. You will not get the deposit money back.</p>
<p>Waitlist students are notified as late as the last week of June. There is no way deposit is binding.</p>
