LOA deadlines secure program seats; Passage may request extensions if delays, like loan processing, occur

Updated over a month ago

When applying through Passage, you might notice that the offer deadline on your Letter of Acceptance (LOA) differs from Passage’s internal deadlines. Here’s why this happens and what you need to know about securing your seat:

1. The Offer Deadline on Your LOA

  • The offer expiry date listed on your LOA is crucial.

  • It represents the deadline by which you must confirm your spot in the program. Missing this date may result in losing your admission offer.

2. Why the Offer Deadline is Critical

  • Schools enforce these deadlines to manage program capacity and ensure fairness in offering seats to other students.

  • As a student, you must secure your seat by this date, typically by completing any required steps, such as making a deposit or confirming your enrollment.

3. What Happens If There’s a Delay?

Sometimes, external factors like loan processing might delay your ability to meet the offer deadline. In such cases:

  • Passage works closely with schools to request an extension.

  • Internal confirmation from the institution is obtained to allow more time for you to secure your seat.
