Deferment for Elementary Education/Early Childhood Education
Before Leaving
Step 1. Education Student Services (ESS)
Meet with an advisor in Education Student Services (120 MCKB, 801-422-3426) to do the following:
- Review and revise your graduation plan
- Sign a Release of Information Form to give permission for a designee to access information necessary to register you for classes
- Turn in a copy of your mission call (or medical letter)
- Register your deferment with the Department of Teacher Education
Step 2. Admissions Office
If you are leaving the university to serve a mission, you must contact the Admissions Office (D-148 ASB, 801-422-4104) to obtain and complete an official University Deferment Form. If you are leaving the university for any other reason, you must contact the Admissions Office to find out what your options are for returning to the university. We can only re-admit you to the program if you are re-admitted to the university. If you have registered for classes, YOU are responsible for dropping them.
Step 3. Financial Aid Office
Contact the Financial Aid Office (801-422-4104) to find out how deferring will affect your financial aid status.
Before Returning
You or your designee must call or write to Education Student Services (ESS) by January 15 (for fall semester returns) or September 15 (for winter semester returns), to verify your return date and make sure you will be able to register for the classes you need. A hold will be placed on your registration until you or a designee has met with an ESS advisor.
