If you are accepted for admission and for personal or educational reasons wish to defer entrance for one year, you may do so with prior permission of the Admissions Office. Requests for such deferrals should be sent, with supporting reasons, to the Dean of Admissions and Financial Aid no later than July 1.
Deferred students will be classified as accepted Early Decision candidates for the next year and will not have to reapply or complete new forms. Deferred candidates may not initiate application to any other colleges or universities. Additionally, it is each deferred candidate's responsibility to write to the Admissions Office before January 1 to provide an update of experiences, activities, and course work, if applicable.
The Admissions Committee reserves the right to review the activities undertaken in the interim and to rescind the offer of admissions if a student's academic or personal record does not remain satisfactory in all respects.
