I imagine that it's easier to get into the waitlist this year than to get admitted next year. As you say, many people will delay so there will be more competition next year. Cass may not view you as highly next year, since they may think you are using them as a safety school and are less likely to attend even if you accept an offer. I think it's worth paying the deposit and apply to better schools as early as possible.
Thank you for your response.
They told me in a mail that if I pay the deposit now, my place will be secured but I have to submit my updated CV, LOR, and SOP for 2021 intake.
Even if I submit the deposit, doesn't it mean that I won't have to worry about my admission at Cass in 2021?
What is the exact process of deferment of admission? How does it work?
If I don't get selected next year even by paying the deposit, will they refund my deposit?
