Same here, accepted but deferred for Jan. Still good news I guess.

Same here, got the call but deferred to Jan 2022

She said no more spots in September 2021...

Does anyone know the difference between the September intake versus January? Do you have less, more, or the same opportunities (e.g. internships, scholarships, etc.)? I would love to understand any difference if there is any!

Incredible that they're already full up given that there are 4 deadlines to go (they seem to have filled up by the previous deadline, judging by the other deferrals). Not clear how Jan admissions are going to be handled when they inevitably fill up way too early.

Got the call two hours ago and I am still ecstatic!!!

emperorangelfish 4 deadlines for the September intake? If they have already filled up the spots what is the point of accepting applications for Sep 2021 intake? Do you think they will increase the class size or something?

That's a good question for which I really have no answer. The strategy of deferring Sep applicants to Jan doesn't make much sense to me in the first place, given that it doesn't really solve the problem at all. I'm happy for the people that have benefited from it though. Posted from my mobile device

Interestingly, I didn't get a call.. but i got an email saying i'm in.. and it's for September intake. Not deferred.

The only way I can reconcile that with the other information is if you're from an under-represented demographic or background. Posted from my mobile device
