Deferred Enrollment

The Deferred Enrollment program allows newly admitted undergraduate students to postpone their initial enrollment at the university for up to one year. The purpose is to allow time to pursue other activities and opportunities that will assist students in clarifying their educational goals (e.g., job opportunities, non-collegiate experience, time to resolve personal or medical problems). Students are not allowed to enroll in another college or university during this time. To be eligible for deferred enrollment, students must return their affirmative Statement of Intent to Register (SIR) with the deposit by the deadline, and must satisfy all university admission and entrance requirements. A Deferred Enrollment application must also be submitted along with a $60 processing fee prior to the first day of instruction of the quarter to which the student was admitted. For more information, please contact Undergraduate Admissions at (530) 752-2971.
