A.4.5 Deferral of Admission

Offers of admission are only valid for the term outlined in the admission letter. Students who are not registered in a course(s) after the course drop deadline for this term must re-apply for admission, unless they are approved for a deferral of admission.

Requests for deferral of admission are available to students who are applying directly from high school and have not attended another post-secondary institution. Requests may be submitted after a student has been admitted and paid the $500.00 admission deposit. Deferral requests may be submitted in writing to the Associate Registrar, Recruitment and Admissions who will consult with the Faculty to which the student has been admitted. Deferrals are only approved for special circumstances and will be considered on a case-by-case basis. Students who attend another post-secondary institution during the deferral period will have the deferral cancelled and must re-apply for admission.

Students admitted to the Cumming School of Medicine (MD program), Veterinary Medicine, and Law see the faculty website for admission deferral information.
