Request to Defer Your Studies
If you have received an offer to pursue your studies from an Australian Institute but find yourself not ready to embark on your academic journey, this Acme Immigration guide is tailored for you on the process of deferring your course.
Depending on your course, you may have the option to defer your offer for up to one year. This entails the university reserving a place for you to enroll in your course the following semester or year.
Why students consider deferring of studies?
- Taking time off to travel, work, or volunteer abroad.
- Exploring other cultures during a gap year.
- Improving grades and academic performance.
- Earning income to reduce financial stress.
Cost
Some education providers may impose a deferral fee ranging from AUD 100 to AUD 200, refundable or non-refundable.
Process
- A new offer is issued if the deferral is approved.
- You may still accept your original offer if rejected.
- Deferrals beyond one year require reapplication.
- A new COE will be issued if applicable.
