<p>It’s called Summer Melt, and schools expect to lose a small percentage of depositers. The usual reason is getting admitted to a preferred school from its waitlist. It’s not uncommon.</p>
<p>I was wondering how I would actually decline my acceptance after I paid my deposit.</p>
<p>I think you can just call and tell them. They’ll likely tell you they’re disappointed, and wish you well. :)</p>
<p>Ah, thanks! Hopefully I’ll be able to avoid that call.</p>
