Domestic Application Deferrals
Application deferrals for international students
Visit our international application deferrals page for more information on how you can defer your application.
A deferral of admission is moving a Confirmed - Full Admission seat in a specific program for a specific term to the same program in a future term.
Eligibility
Deferrals of admission are only considered on a case-by-case basis for compelling circumstances and must be approved by the Office of the Registrar.
- Compelling circumstances must be validated with official documentation and are outside the student’s control. Examples include:
- illness
- court appearances
- bereavement
- significant extenuating personal circumstances.
- Financial constraints and changes in personal plans are not considered extenuating circumstances.
Approved deferral
If your admission deferral is approved, a $250 administration fee will be deducted from the tuition deposit — the remaining balance can be used for the deferred term. If you then cancel your deferred application, the deposit will not be refunded and will be forfeited.
You can only defer your application once. If you choose to defer a second time, you must pay an additional non-refundable tuition deposit for that application.
Declined deferral
If your admission deferral is declined and you decide to cancel your current application, your tuition deposit will not be refunded and will be forfeited. Review tuition and fees for our refund policy.

Submitting your request
If you wish to pursue a deferral, please complete the admission deferral request.
Students accepted to Academic Upgrading and English Language Foundations cannot request a deferral as they are non-credential programs. You may be eligible to move your application once to a different open intake. Submit your request before your program start date.
