How likely is re-acceptance after deferral?

<p>I was accepted to USC for Fall 2008, but due to military duty, (and since the school doesn't do deferrals), I was told to update my application to next year.</p>

<p>I'm quite uncertain about my chances of re-entry, does anyone have information/statistics regarding the people who re-apply who get accepted the second time round? (I didn't turn them down this year but I couldn't enroll either.)</p>

<p>it will most likely be a bit harder this year simply because there are likely to be more applicants. i doubt your deferral itself will be a problem if you explain the reason.</p>

<p>there is someone in this forum who got accepted again even though she didn't go the first time she got accepted.. check the transfer 08 thread?</p>
