SCU decision date for ealy actions

user_462934, this is not the end of your journey. Keep a positive attitude. Deferral means they saw that you have all the qualifications to get in, just want a little more time. Don’t let it define you. I had a niece waitlisted at SCU and she was later accepted. Maintain your interest, but allow yourself the opportunity to explore some other schools while you wait. There is no one school for everyone. In two years at SCU or elsewhere, you will never look back and won’t be able to imagine yourself anywhere else.
