An Approval Letter of Deferment will be issued, indicating all the requirements for recommence and deferment period. This letter is required when the student recommences the study. Failure to re-commence studies at the nominated time will result in being subject to any fee increases taking place during the periods of deferment or being withdrawal from the program.Student applying a deferment do so with the understanding that he/she will be accepted back when space is available and his/her study can be reassumed.
