<p>Today I actually drove to Ann Arbor by myself (it’s only 1.5 hours away from where I live) and walked around campus and stuff. This is the third time I’ve been to Michigan’s campus and I love it everytime. The thing is, even if I was accepted to Duke, there would have been a big chance that I would have chosen Michigan anyways because its instate tuition, I still love Michigan academically, and I personally like bigger schools better. Duke obviously is better academically, but the difference isn’t that big, especially being in Michigan honors. Not to mention, Michigan football and Ann Arbor > Durham. So I really think I won’t accept my waitlist spot because the only purpose that would serve would be a trivial morale booster for me if I ultimately was accepted. But I feel like it’s rude to keep my name in when there are others who would definitely attend if accepted. </p>
<p>Does anyone know if you accept a waitlist spot and they accept you if you automatically have to go? You can still say no right? (I know this seems like a stupid question considering my prior statements, but my parents want to know haha)</p>
