Thank you for visiting the international student Regular Studies deferral request form. This form is used when requesting to defer an admitted application from one semester to a future semester.

Please note that as of February 10, 2023 deferral requests can only be submitted by international students in Regular Studies programs who have been fully admitted (accepted the offer of admission by paying the deposit and received a Letter of Acceptance).

Applicants who have not yet received an offer of admission, or who have received an offer of admission but have not yet paid their deposit and wish to defer their application to a future date are required to reapply to the future intake through EPBC as a “New International Applicant” (a new application fee is required). Only deferral requests from fully admitted students are accepted through this form. All other deferral requests will not be processed.

As of February 10, 2023, students who have accepted their offer of admission by paying the deposit, and who wish to defer their start date may do so only once per program application, including due to study permit delays or rejection. If students wish to defer more than one time, a new application through EPBC is required. Please note that deferral requests are not guaranteed to be approved.

If you wish to change your program, do not use this form.

If you are a domestic student (Canadian Citizen or Permanent Resident), please contact admissions@langara.ca.
