There is a process and deadline by which a student may defer their admission for either one semester or one academic year. Deferring admission maintains the Global Wildcat Award eligibility and the Enrollment Fee.
To defer your admission please follow these steps:
- Verify the deferral deadline has not passed for your admit term
- Log into the Next Steps Center to pay the $450 Enrollment Fee. You'll need to click on the Path to Enrollment tile and progress through to the Secure Your Spot section. (skip this step if you’ve already paid your enrollment fee)
- Open your current term application in Future Wildcat
- Click on the tab Defer your Admission
- Scroll down and choose the Defer Main Campus Admission to a future term
Once you've completed the Deferral Request Form, please allow up to 10 business days for processing. Once you've received confirmation of admission to your new term, you can log back into the Next Steps Center to continue with the enrollment checklist items.
