Waiting list question
Hello, my simplified CAF scenario:
1. SchoolA
2. SchoolB
Question: if on Allocation/Offer day I get offer from SchoolB, do I have to Accept it immediately? Would I, by accepting SchoolB, lose my waiting list opportunity for SchoolA? Or do I have to first decline the offer from SchoolB to be placed on SchoolA waiting list? Any expert input would be greatly appreciated.

Re: Waiting list question
If offered school B then accept it and ask to be on the WL for school A

Re: Waiting list question
Without further interaction with your LA to reactivate your application to schools C and D, you will only go on the waiting list for school A in this scenario. In most areas, being added to the waiting list for schools of a higher ranked preference is automatic, but in some, you have to tell the LA that you want to do this.gg234 wrote:One more question related to waiting list
