Deferral Option: Candidates who wish to defer admission must notify the school in writing and maintain their place by paying the non-refundable deposit.

A term's notice or payment of one term's fees in lieu of notice is required before a student can be withdrawn. Failure to comply will result in the withholding of transcripts or transfer certificates.

Important Notice Requirements:

Notices of withdrawal submitted at the end of a term for the next term cannot be accepted. For example, withdrawal in the Easter Term requires notice at the beginning of the Christmas Term.
