Examples of circumstances that may be considered include:

• Personal or family medical conditions
• Court appearances
• Participation in an exchange or volunteer program with clear timelines
• Bereavement (e.g., death certificate, obituary, or funeral notice)
• Study permit delays (but not denials) including proof of timely submission of a completed application for a Canadian study permit

Financial constraints and changes in personal plans are typically not considered for deferrals.

Applicants may submit one deferral request per application cycle. Additional requests will not be considered if applicants are unable to attend in the semester to which they have been deferred.

To be considered for an admission deferral, all of the following conditions must be met:

• You have paid the tuition deposit for the term you have an admission deferral for
• You have a final admission (not a conditional offer of admission)

If your deferral is approved,

• You must meet any additional requirements that may have been implemented for the new semester of admission
• You may not attend any high school or post-secondary institution during the year of the deferred admission. Applicants who do so will have their admission deferral withdrawn and will be required to submit a new application for admission assessment.

If you believe you qualify for an admission deferral, please email aro@mtroyal.ca and request the form be sent to you.

The form must be completed by the following deadlines:

Once your admission deferral request is received, it will be reviewed by the Director of Admissions and Recruitment. You will be notified of the decision by email.

If your request is approved, your current application will be cancelled and a new application will be created for your deferred program and term. Your tuition deposit will be automatically transferred to the new term.

If your request is not approved and you choose to cancel your application, your tuition deposit will be forfeited.
