I applied to six schools (HSW, Sloan, Kellogg, Booth) in R1.

I didn’t apply to Haas in R1 and due some personal situations, now prefer it over some of the other schools I applied to because I wouldn’t need to relocate from the Bay Area.

If I get into a school in R1, how long do I have to decide? anyone ever give up an R1 spot they got in to to go to another school admitted in R2?
