Deferred status?

I think so.
I got the same "deferred" status from Iowa - I am pretty much counting it as a rejection.
How did they tell you? Email? Iowa is the only school I am still waiting on...
Based on the definition of deferment I don't think you should count it as a rejection. It seems more like they're going to go through more applications first and then review your app again. Maybe you'll score an interview for the waitlist and make it in that way; it's not over 'til it's over.

Tru dat! I am keeping the faith.
Anyway, I got the email from Iowa stating "deferred" on 7/31 - then AADSAS update from Iowa shows app complete / under review - posted on 8/13, so maybe there is still hope
What does an applicant being deferred mean? Is it a rejection?
Thanks.
I think it means your app is in the back up pile....
Got one too, I am counting that one as a rejection. 🙁
