Apply to defer
When deferring your offer, you are guaranteed your place but are choosing to delay starting your course. The University allows you to defer your course for up to 12 months. In certain cases (eg. financial difficulties, compulsory military service), you can apply to extend this to 24 months. There is no cost to defer and you will not be charged any fees while you are on deferment.
You must enrol, defer or reject your offer by the specified enrolment date. Some faculties may allow you to defer your course up until census date. For details, refer to your faculty enrolment information
Monash may not approve or give credit for other study while you are on deferment.
Note: The Australian Government plans to raise the Student Contribution Amount (SCA) for science, mathematics and statistics units. If you defer your Commonwealth Supported Place (CSP), you may be charged a higher student contribution amount for these units from 2013. For more information, see Study Assist
