Students can defer their enrollment at TAU for one year. If a longer deferment is needed, they would need to reapply after the first year.

The Dual Degree typically opens for applications in August and usually closes early January for fall admissions. Admissions are done via the dedicated Columbia website. For our other regular BA and BSc degrees, most open for admissions in November or December of the year before and the deadlines for applying are typically in August. Since each program is run independently with its own admissions process, academic structure, and team, the way to move forward is to explore the programs that align with your academic goals. Once you’ve identified one or more programs that interest you, please reach out directly to the program coordinator listed on that program’s webpage. They will be your point of contact for specific admissions requirements, application deadlines, and academic content.
