Quantic Deferral Policy
If you are accepted into a Quantic class and are unexpectedly not able to dedicate the proper amount of time to the program, you may consider deferring your enrollment. Students who defer to a new cohort are responsible for meeting all graduation requirements associated with their new cohort. There may be differences in required coursework and, therefore, previous coursework and scores may not always satisfy requirements in a new cohort. For this reason, we strongly recommend all students meet with a Student Affairs team member to discuss all options to determine if deferral is appropriate based on the individual needs. To begin the deferral process please contact us at support@quantic.edu to discuss the next steps.
You are able to defer a total of two times after your acceptance. If you need to request a second deferral, then please complete this second deferral request form. After two deferrals, if you are still unable to complete the program, you will need to reapply at a time that better suits your schedule. In accordance with Quantic policies, all students must graduate within three years of their initial start date. Students deferring prior to their cohort's start date will have their choice of the next two upcoming cohorts. Students who are administratively withdrawn from Quantic may not be eligible for deferral and may be asked to reapply.
If you defer into an upcoming cohort, the following actions will take place:
- You will be removed from your Slack group.
- Your progress will be frozen, and you will not be able to take any lessons other than the Business Foundations courses that were available before you were accepted. Any existing progress will be transferred to your new cohort, allowing you to pick up from where you left off.
- Any monthly tuition payments will be suspended until after your new cohort begins.
- When the new cohort begins, you'll receive a new Slack invitation, the full schedule, and your courses will be unfrozen.
If you defer into an ongoing cohort, the following actions will take place:
- You will be removed from your Slack group.
- Your existing progress will be immediately transferred to your new cohort, allowing you to pick up from where you left off.
- If you have a monthly tuition payment plan, payments will continue as scheduled.
- You'll receive a new Slack invitation and a link to your new cohort's full schedule.
