Questions about the deposit

I’m a high school senior who was accepted into The Ohio State University for fall 2014. I still need to see how much scholarship $ I will be offered before making my final decision, but I have a few questions that I need answering about the school that I haven’t been able to find online or from my family member who currently attends OSU.


What does it mean to accept/decline my admission decision on the website?
Is the enrollment deposit binding, or is there a way to back out if I decide to attend another school?
If it is binding, how important is it to pay the deposit sooner rather than later? I want to live on South Campus if I attend, but do I need to submit the deposit as soon as I see the scholarship letter (provided I get enough merit aid), or will I have time to think about my decision?
