Applying to your dream college? It's not just about deadlines. You face a binding decisions, competition, and the outcome: acceptance, deferral, or denial.
A deferral sends your application to the regular decision pool for another review, keeping hope alive. Denial, however, is a full stop from that college for the admissions cycle.
After a deferral, it's time to shine brighter. Boost your grades, ace your tests, and dive deeper into extracurriculars. Every update can tilt the scale in your favor.
If denied, consider appealing with a strong, polite letter or plan to reapply next cycle. Show you're undeterred and ready to enhance your application.
Whether deferred or denied, the journey isn't over. Reach out to admissions with updates or an appeal, and remember, other colleges are waiting for your application.
