<p>Hi, </p>
<p>I'm really sorry if this is in the wrong forum, but I couldn't find it in my Google searches. </p>
<p>I've been accepted to Graduate school and would need to submit my response tomorrow. I find that I may need to defer my admission (I understand that not all cases will be accepted), but for now I need to "accept" or "decline" my offer. Hence the silly question: if I want to defer my admission, do I accept my offer or decline the offer?</p>
<p>If I accept it, would I be able to ask for a deferral after? </p>
<p>It's largely my fault for waiting last minute to review my options, as I was waiting for other schools before I make my decision. </p>
<p>Hopefully someone can help me. </p>
<p>Thanks so much!</p>
