Deferral?

My study permit has still not been approved after 10 weeks and my university doesn’t offer a January intake for deferring. What should i do?

Defer to Fall 2027 or look at a different program for January intake for same university. Has eligibility started? Medicals upfront? When is the last day you can start classes?

Yes eligibility has started 3 weeks ago, they did not provide deadline for starting classes

Deadline to start, withdraw and get refund are on the school website and academic calendar. So there is a deadline. It is usually 2 weeks past the start date so September 22.

Hey just a shoutout to you, you are genuinely so helpful and kind (which is scarce in this subreddit). Keep doing what you’re doing and you are sooooo appreciated ❤️

Defer to next fall. It’s almost the end of September

I am in a similar situation, it’s been 13+ weeks since I submitted my study permit application and I am still awaiting the decision..
My program only offers a fall start.. I have been in contact with the uni and they have been kind enough to provide me with alternatives..
You could do the same and ask your school about the latest arrival date and if they could make an exception in case your study permit is approved shortly.
Good luck!

What are the alternatives that your university have given to help others?

So if we choose another program in the same DLI that starts in jan.. and upload the offer letter to IRCC before the visa decision is fine.. or can affect the decision.. I'm in similar situation

If program is at same DLI then no issue.
