    Hey guys, I'm taking next year out before going to college and don't know whether I should apply for the grants now or wait till next year. Please help, the closing date is tomorrow.

    you sure? I don't want to go over the deadline to find out I'm missing out on a much needed grant.

    You apply for it the year you are going to college, you can't defer a grant.

    I know, but would it be the same situation if someone didnt get the points and had to repeat? Would they have to reapply next year or would their previous application carry over?

    If you apply and don't follow through with your course, you just email to cancel your application. The following year, you just log in and apply.
