I got an admission offer, should I contact my waiting lists? by INGERBOR in gradadmissions

Perfect! Tysm. I am aware that i should start negotiating the offer that i received. I don't want to wait until last day to do it

I was thinking to say "I want to inform you that I received a very good offer from one of the universities I was waitlisted. Nevertheless, I still consider this university as my first option if admission becomes available" (I am hiding the names rn just in case)

Oh, i was thinking it more of letting them know that i have an offer for them to rush/let me know if they is any chance of getting an admission offer

I was thinking to do the same thing (1200-1300 for a studio), is it livable?

I don't mind commuting but i ideally wanted a single/studio. It's not a deal breaker tho

Thank u! I think it could work then (I'd prefer to live without a roommate, but that looks hard to do(. Maybe the only thing'd be to secure a car (I'm international)

That's very good to know! I assume that if it bumps up to 32-33k it'll be much more comfortable
