What to do if your admission is deferred
If you have to defer your admission, you must first contact your educational institution to find out what procedures to follow. For example, admission to some programs is limited to the fall semester, while others offer admission in two or three semesters.
If you have to postpone your admission, your educational institution will provide you with a new admission letter with the new program start and end dates, if applicable.
If you are in possession of a CAQ, it remains valid even if you postpone the start of your program by one or more sessions at the same educational institution and for the same level of study. The CAQ, like the study permit, remains valid and admissible throughout the validity period indicated on the letter of acceptance. However, if your CAQ expires before the start of your program, you must submit a new CAQ application in accordance with current regulatory requirements.
