Can I apply for deferred entry?

The College is pretty neutral with regard to Gap Years, and we really have no bias one way or the other (although some subjects, such as Maths, would expect you to do some revision before coming up to Cambridge to get back up to speed!). However, you should be aware that the College does need a firm commitment to a particular year of entry, and this has to be indicated on your Cambridge Application Form. It is almost impossible to amend a year of entry after an offer has been made. Interviews take place in December each year and so you should try and avoid any clash if Gap year plans involve working abroad.
