SMU

chances of getting in to SMU even if i was deferred early action?

It really depends on how good your credentials are and number of applicants. Common Data set for last year shows that about 12000 students applied and 52 % were admitted. About 3% of those people applied early decision and about 1/2 made it in. This data is from 2014-15. Of those who were put on the wait list later about 7% make it in. Worrying about it is not going to change a thing so just be patient.
