Deferral

After official admission to a master’s degree, certificate, or licensure program, the student, with permission from the department, may defer enrollment for up to a year. A deferral request must be approved by the program director or designee by the Thursday before the first week of classes for the original application term.  If the deferral is longer than a year or the request is not approved with the allotted time, the student may reapply for admission but must submit new application materials and meet all current admission requirements.
