I've been accepted to Monash University, but due to some personal reasons, I want to defer my course. Does anyone know the process or have experience with deferring courses there?
To defer your course at Monash University, you need to follow some steps.
1. Course deferment request: Firstly, you'll need to log into your student portal and submit a course deferment request. You can generally do this within a specified period, typically about four weeks before the start of the course.
2. Reasons for deferment: You'll be asked to provide the reasons for the deferment. Make sure these are clearly stated, and supportive documentation might be required depending on your circumstances.
3. Review process: Once submitted, your request will be reviewed. The decision can vary depending on your course, the reasons stated, and the supporting documentation.
4. Response: You'll receive a response to your request through email. If your request is accepted, you'll receive information about your new start date and any next steps you may need to take.
Remember, deferring your course could have implications for your student visa, accommodation, and financial aid. You should carefully consider these aspects before making your decision.
Always make sure that you also check the most up-to-date and specific information from Monash University's official website or through a guidance counselor, which can help guide you through the process.
