Shortening deferral period
Email phd@otago.ac.nz or masters@otago.ac.nz (copy in your primary supervisor) with your name, student ID, and the reason for the change in deferral dates. Deferral can only be shortened to a minimum of one month. It may also mean you will need to enrol in a previous semester and you will incur fees for this.
