Issuing multiple I-20: Is it problematic? [MUST LOOK]

[mmha]

Please consider the following two scenarios, and let me know your opinion.

• Each university sets an official deadline when post (acceptance) notification to applicants. It might be the case that university X’s deadline is 15-20th march. However the applicant may still wait to hear from some better ranked universities. Now, if he sends “accept” acknowledgment to X, X will process sending I-20. Now suppose another university Y responses positively (Y is preferred to X), and applicant now accepts this offer too. Now 2 universities post two I-20 for the same applicant. Does it make any problem when the applicant faces the US Embassy? I’m really worried about it.

• Consider that an applicant applied to MS program at US and Canadian universities. He got accepted to Canadian school M with full funding. So initially he opted to go to M, and acknowledged. Now few days later, he hears from US school N (which is much reputed than M). However N doesn’t provide full funding. After discussing with family and friends the applicant later prefers to go to N. In this scenario, two I-20 would be issued for him from two countries. Would it make any hazard? Please let me know.

Thanks.

No hazard whatsoever.
