IIM Kashipur has offered a Deferred Admission Option to some General category candidates for the 2026-28 admission process. But what does deferred admission actually mean? Is your admission secured? Do you need to appear for CAT again? What happens to the ₹50,000 acceptance fee and ₹3,20,000 Term 1 fee?
In this video, Amiya Sir explains the complete meaning of IIM Kashipur Deferred Admission, the fee refund and adjustment process, why such an option may be offered, and most importantly, whether you should accept or reject the deferred option.
This video is especially important for:
Freshers confused about joining this year
Candidates planning to repeat CAT
Students who want to improve their profile
Candidates with 2.5 to 3+ years of work experience
Students worried about gap year impact
Candidates confused between IIM Kashipur and another CAT attempt
Deferred admission can be a smart decision for some candidates, especially if they can use one year productively through internships, live projects, work experience, better CAT preparation or profile building.
But it may not be the best option for everyone, especially if you have already resigned, already have high work experience, or do not have a clear plan for the next one year.
Before submitting your willingness, make sure you check:
Will your admission remain secured?
Will ₹50,000 be adjusted next year?
Will you need to repeat CAT or PI process?
What happens if the fee increases next year?
Do you have a clear one-year plan?
