emailing admissions about admission to other school

I just got accepted into a January program and only have a couple weeks to decide if I'll be attending. I also applied to a few other schools that I would still like to consider.

Would it be inappropriate for me to email those other schools notifying them of my acceptance to the other school and asking if they would be able to review my application sooner? I would say that I understand that it is a difficult request and if they were not able to, however if they were to accept me within the next couple weeks I would likely reconsider accepting my offer to the other school.

Please let me know your thoughts, thanks!

Doesn't hurt to ask. The worst they can do is reject you immediately (but that probably won't happen).

The Cardozo January program with a scholarship.

I think I'm going to email them, thanks.
