Here's my postion: The university that I have been accepted at has granted me a deferral of a year, which I will use to work at my current job. I am also on the waitlist for another school which I would prefer to attend, and would go this year (2014) if they don't allow me to defer. Both schools start around the same time. The school that I am deferring at sent me an official letter saying that I have to re-apply through AMCAS for 2015 as a deferred matriculant by November 1, 2014. They also say that I will need to withdraw any outstanding applications, but don't make it clear whether they want me to withdraw from schools I am waitlisted at, or just schools that would accept me in 2015 (there are none). I would obviously like to stay in consideration for the school I am on the waitlist at. I haven't signed anything binding at the school I am deferring at. Has anyone encountered a similar situation?
