Wayne State University 为什么要求我15天内回复接受不接受offer 他家不是签了4.15协议么，不是应该4.15之前回复接不接受offer么？现在才2月中旬啊，很多学校结果都没出来，我怎么能接受呢？他家的offer letter如下。。。求助ing....好心人！

Dear Ms Huang,

Please find in attachment a letter of offer for Graduate Admission (PhD program) and a GTA position. Please inform me within 15 days whether you accept or decline the offer. If you accept the offer, please fill and sign the attached forms and send them to Prof. Cinabro, Department Chair, at the enclosed address or by email. You will also need to procure an appropriate work visa for entry in the United States. I will need to have proof you have obtained such visa by April 30th otherwise the attached offer will become void.

Claude Pruneau
Professor
Chair of the Graduate Admission Committee
Department of Physics and Astronomy
Wayne State Univeristy

有一些学校就是喜欢催，这样能减少他们招生的不确定性...
楼主其他的地方有消息了吗？

Just listing a few possibilities:
1) their yield is volatile（正如Cache版所说）;
2) some students might not be aware of the 415 stuff, and the school exploits that;
3) they might think it's easy enough for you to decide in 15 days, i. e. either you have likely got better offers at this point, or WSU is almost the best among your options.

I have respect for the people there but they can use some work for a better recruiting process.

还有就是Caltech的一封拒信。。。感觉我脑袋发昏了申了他家，大约是申一下圆满人生之类吧。。。
其它11所学校无消息。。。
