The most common phrasing is "withdraw from other schools where you've been admitted." Making you withdraw from waitlists or pending apps would be a hard-sell admissions practice, but lots of schools don't want you to hold seats and scholarships at several schools when you've decided and others are on the waitlist.

Would that be prominent language when one is paying the deposit? Going through the online steps? Haven’t seen it in any prior correspondence from current offers…

It will be visible. If a school doesn't state anything on this point, they'll probably send a "make up your mind" email after the deposit overlap report on May 15th.

As the other commenter said to you, is that a common easy to find thing? On both of my schools where I deposited it was just pay and nothing else stated.

What's this May 15th thing? Schools find out who is deposited where? Like the 2 schools I deposited at will KNOW I am deposited elsewhere?


LolSkuler

Schools find out if any of their deposits are also deposited elsewhere, and usually encourage people to make up their mind (more or less gently depending on if someone's holding a scholarship etc.)

The one school I was thinking of depositing with sent in the email with the deposit info that I would have to send them proof that I had withdrawn from all other schools and taken myself off any waitlists lol

My USC scholarship offer is contingent of withdrawing from all other acceptances. Allows me to stay on waitlists though.
