Hello,

I am admitted to Mccombs. But I would like to defer my admission by an year due to some family issues and finances. Does anyone know the policy to do defer the admission?

Thanks

I deferred last year. I had to submit a letter (via email) to the Director of Admissions with my request and reason for deferral. They'll either approve or decline the request. If approved, they'll walk you through the steps necessary.

You will have to pay a deposit this year and a second deposit next year when you actually enroll - all of it goes towards tuition costs but is non-refundable.

Hope this helps!

I made the request a couple of days before the enrollment decision deadline.

Thanks for your response.

When is the enrollment decision deadline? Is this the deposit deadline? I just sent a deferral request today. Not sure whether it is too late or not. Thanks!
