You are allowed to defer admission up to 1 year from your originally admitted term. For example, you have been admitted to Fall 2023, you can defer to Spring 2024 or Fall 2024. Deferral request can be sent to ME Grad Office before your admitted term starts. (Please note: if you request to defer admission, please don’t register for any courses in your originally admitted semester. Once you register, you are considered an active student in that semester and cannot defer.)
Time frame may vary depending on the application volume. You should login to your application account to check status. Constant email inquiries do not speed up the decision process, so please do not email the ME Grad Office to check status of your application
