<p>Hi
I live in the UK and I was supposed to be starting college at Cloud county community college in Kansas this fall, however due to family situations I don't think I will be able to leave that soon.
Does anybody know if enrollments can be deferred until January or the next semester?</p>
<p>Deferring matriculation is a standard practice, but different colleges many have different policies. Sorry that this is not a too helpful answer- I think the best plan is to directly call or email the school’s advising office.</p>
<p>It’s a community college. It’s standards are not that strict. Indeed you’ll find that huge number of people enrolled in any particular class will drop it before the semester is complete.</p>
<p>Community colleges serve the local population and thus, students come from a variety of backgrounds and situations – which includes many drops/adds/last minute sign ups, etc.</p>
<p>Yes you can defer without any penalty. Curious however, why did you choose a small community college in such a small farming community away from any metropolitan area? Why are you going to a remote school in Kansas?</p>
