Hello Everyone! I would really like some solid information about this question.

I am admitted to Nova for the Fall but I would really like to defer to get myself mentally & financially ready. Also, there are 2 schools I would rather go to in place of Nova. Not that Nova is not a nice school but I felt better at the other 2 schools, which at the moment I am waitlisted at both.

1) Does Nova grant admission deferment? What do you have to do to get this?

2) Are you able to reapply to other DO schools while you are on deferment? or will they find out & kick you off deferment?

3) How late can you apply for deferment?

You can PM me if you would rather not share this with the whole list. It is a pretty specific question!

Thanks for any info.............. 🙂
