<p>so i'm transferring for the fall 2012 semester to a state university near my hometown from a cc, but the thing is i also got into an expensive private college farther away that wouldn't make sense for me to go to due to cost factors as i would have to take out loans, since they didn't give me much aid. I was wondering if i could go to the state university for the fall, and defer the private one for spring just in case? (and acquire funds)</p>
<p>Bumpp anyone</p>
<p>I could be wrong, but I’m pretty sure you can’t. Also, they would likely recalculate your aid, as it is often reserved for incoming freshmen, and you will no longer be one if you go to the other university. You might also want to consider deferring at the private college and taking a gap year, so you can work full time and earn more towards your cost of attendance.</p>
<p>I too doubt it will work, but there’s one sure way to find out, call them and ask.</p>
