In-light of the pandemic, we understand that your plans to study at NBCC in Fall 2020 may have been impacted due to the inability to complete the study permit/visa application process, travel restrictions and/or other personal reasons. As a result, the
College is temporarily modifying its deferral policies for international applicants.
Eligible Applicants
- Those who have been admitted to the Fall 2020 intake but are impacted by COVID-19,
- Those who have been admitted to the Fall 2020 intake but visa/study permit applications have been refused
- Those who have been waitlisted for the Fall 2020 intake.
Eligible international applicants now have a one-time opportunity to defer their application to the next academic year for the same campus and program choice.
Deferred applicant's status will be re-instated using the old date/time stamp and no application fee will be requested. Fall 2021 applications will start being processed in October 2020.
Please note that your confirmation fee is non-refundable and will be deferred to the next academic year. Applicants who have made additional payments towards their student fees may request a refund by following the steps found here.
Deferral Request Deadlines
NOTE: The option to defer, regardless of reason, will no longer be available once a student begins their program on September 8th 2020.
| Deadline Date | Reason | Additional Notes |
|---|
| Sep 7, 2020 | Impacted by COVID | Requests after deadline will not be considered as eligible for deferral. |
| Sep 30, 2020 | Visa/Study Permit Refusal | If you receive the refusal after deadline, you need to submit deferral request within 30 days you received your refusal. |
| Sep 30, 2020 | Waitlisted for Fall 2020 | If your request is not received before deadline, your application will be cancelled at the end of the admission cycle for the current year. |
