Deferring

<p>I have found the admission process to be exhausting, overwhelming and disappointing. I have been rejected, waitlisted, offered "off term" admissions, and accepted to some schools but not given enough aid to attend. This is not whining, this is just stating the facts.</p>

<p>Does anyone know what the process is if I defer a year or a semester to one of the schools where I was offered "off term" admission (one is summer [early] and one is spring [late]). Does my place just get held or do I need to reapply? I would like to enter in Sept 2012 if I can't enter in Sept 2011. </p>

<p>If I am granted a deferment without reapplying, do I keep the same aid if my finances haven't change? Also, am I allowed to apply or reapply to other schools during my deferment?</p>

<p>On the questions you ask, colleges differ on the answers so you need to contact each college to determine what its rules are.</p>
