Application for Deferment / Suspension Form International Students

With reference to the Standard 9 of NCP, Registered providers can defer or suspend the enrolment of an overseas student if there are compassionate or compelling circumstances.

1. Deferment/Suspension will be approved only under compassionate and compelling circumstances.
2. Students must submit the evidence of compassionate and compelling circumstances together with this request form to support the claim.
3. If the student goes overseas or is returning to their home country during this time, confirmed air ticket should also be submitted with this request form.
4. Deferment/Suspension may affect the course end date and future course(s) commencement date(s). This may lead you to apply for an extension of student visa to complete the course(s).
5. The units that you will miss during deferment are subject to availability. Nortwest College may or may not be able to offer these units upon your return and you may need to make other arrangements to complete them.
6. Please contact the Course Coordinator upon return to make arrangements for any missed units during deferment period.
7. You must complete the Course Resumption Form upon return to resume classes.
