Why Do Colleges Defer Students? • Good Questions to Ask on a College Tour • Congrats to Lauren • West Chester University
WHY DO COLLEGES DEFER STUDENTS?
While you are hoping for a yes, you open the envelope and see that you have been deferred. Your heart sinks and you wonder why you were deferred. It’s not a yes, it’s not a no; rather, you’re in limbo – and it’s frustrating to say the least.
Visiting a college blind without doing your research and compiling a list of questions you want to ask is like taking a test without doing the work to understand the material or doing your due diligence and studying ahead of time. You are bound to fail, and no one wants to see that happen. You want to walk away having a greater understanding of how this school may be a good fit for you, socially, academically, financially, and emotionally.
Congratulations to Lauren for committing to American University! We wish Lauren the best of luck and warmest wishes as she joins her new American University Eagles family!
