Deferral of Enrollment

Students who have been accepted to Labouré College of Healthcare, and who are unable or do not wish to start classes in the term for which they applied may request to defer their enrollment for up to three semesters, which is the equivalent of one year. Students deferring past one year will be required to reapply to Labouré College of Healthcare. Deferring enrollment allows a student to maintain their admissions decision. Students who defer may not be able to retain their current clinical-course group and may be placed into a new Nursing group.

A student who decides to defer their enrollment must submit their non-refundable matriculation fee/enrollment deposit. The deadline to defer enrollment is the same as the deposit deadline: November 15 for the Spring semester, March 15 for the Summer semester, May 15 for the Fall semester, or thirty days from acceptance (whichever comes later).

Students who will be enrolling in another institution during their time of deferral are encouraged to speak with their Admissions Counselor. Any courses taken at other institutions during deferment will be evaluated by the Department of Admissions in accordance with the transfer credit policy.

All specific questions or concerns regarding individual students should be directed to the Admissions Department.
