How can I defer admission at University at Buffalo?

I'm considering deferring my admission for a year at the University at Buffalo. Does anyone know the process and requirements for deferring admission there? How common is it to defer at this university?

Deferring admission for a year is often referred to as taking a gap year, and the process varies by university. For the University at Buffalo, to defer your admission, you would need to follow these general steps:

1. Acceptance of Admission: You first need to formally accept your admission offer by paying the deposit fee.

2. Writing an Application: You would then need to write to University at Buffalo's Admissions office requesting a deferment. Be sure to include your reasons for wanting to defer.

3. Late Registration: Once your deferment request has been approved, you would then register for classes one year later during the assigned registration period.

While it's common for students at many universities to defer for a variety of reasons, it's best to reach out to Admissions at the University at Buffalo for specifics as acceptance is often dependent on the reasons provided in the deferment application. Keep in mind the deferment request may or may not be granted based on University at Buffalo's policy. It's also important to note that financial aid and scholarship offers often do not carry over during deferment, so you'll need to confirm this with the Financial Aid Office as well.
