Asking for Offer Extension - UK Schools 11 Mar 2011, 19:58

First of all, I would like to thank everyone involved with the GMATClub community for helping me through the business school application process and being an invaluable source of information on the GMAT, schools, and career prospects. I did well on the GMAT, and I have to attribute my success to the excellent resources provided by this site. The GMATclub tests were my main source of practice for the real thing.

I am an applicant for several UK and continental European Master's of Finance programs and have a decision to make regarding acceptance to Cass. I am still waiting on decisions from all the other schools I applied to and have to notify and pay the Cass deposit by March 31 (about $3500). The offer is a conditional offer given that I receive a certain cumulative CPA (which I shouldn't have any trouble doing).

Has anyone ever asked for an extension on the decision? What details/reasons should I give in the letter?

Thanks in advance for your help.

Bump.

To keep it short... my questions are:

- Has anyone asked for an extension on their offer before?
- How long should I request the extension?
- What reasons should I give? Does it look bad to say you are waiting for other decisions?
