- This process applies students participating in U.S. Basic Training and MOS School. It does not apply to students with military obligations for foreign countries.
- You must be a fully admitted student to Texas A&M University at College Station.
- Other pathways to admission are not eligible to defer, such as PSA, Blinn Team, Engineering at Blinn, Gateway, Galveston, McAllen and others. Please contact the military admissions department if you have questions regarding pathways to admission.
- Admission can be deferred for one semester only, i.e., Fall to Spring or Spring to Fall.

### Withdrawal Process To Accommodate Texas A&M University Students Called to Active U.S. Military Service

This process is for students called to active U.S. military service.  It does not apply to students with military obligations for foreign countries.

This process is for students called to active U.S. Military Service.  It does not apply to students with foreign military obligations. Before deciding to withdraw, please take the time to read through the directions on the [Military Withdrawal form](https://admissions.tamu.edu/getattachment/543b30b6-f5b3-42e3-8232-40d8c107695d/Military-Admissions_Instructions-and-Form_Withdrawal.pdf) and discuss the process with an Admissions Counselor in Military Admissions. Depending on the duration of your absence, withdrawal may not be required. In cases of short-term absence, it is advised that you work with your department or advisor to complete coursework instead of withdrawing. If withdrawal is required, the Military Admissions team will assist you through the readmission process. We encourage students to review the [Military Withdrawal FAQ page](https://admissions.tamu.edu/getmedia/34cd365c-2cf8-46ef-b4f0-ab5a1bc03649/Military-Admissions_FAQ_Withdrawal.pdf).
