| Can you defer if you select early decision? |

| Usually not. Ask the college in question. |

No. Early decision doesn’t allow deferral as you promise to accept the offer of given. What would one be deferring for? You can’t go to anywhere else if you’re accepted.

| Yes for a gap year. Would that be okay? Can you defer? |

ED doesn’t usually affect whether you can take a gap year. You should look on the school’s website. Typically you have to fill out some sort of form and get approved to take a gap year. |

| They may approve a gap year, but most schools say not to apply ED if the student wants a gap year. ED means you commit to showing up in the Fall. |
