My UC Riverside admission situation. Help me out?

Hey guys, I’ma keep this in a nutshell. So I was admitted late by UCR by the Opt-In application, and I missed the Financial aid deadline! So it pretty much explains itself, I can’t afford the fall quarter without any aid! So my question is since I’m pretty much admitted at UCR, am I able to wait for a couple quarters to starting taking classes so my Fin Aid can start rolling in? Will there be some sort of penalty or termination? AND, is it really too late to apply for financial aid?

You cannot defer in most situations and will have to reapply. But there may be exceptions I’m not aware of. You will need to speak directly with UCR.
