Is it too late to defer entry this year?

Basically here's freshers week(s) that starts like today, plus there was an online enrollment bit for anyone not just international students that I did... So I'm probably too late but say I ask and would it be worth it? I haven't got a job yet or anything I just know I'm not wanting to go enough (this isn't new i've been waiting to be okay enough about it, i think it's mostly the course i'm not as excited as i should be about it) so if I can save the paying the loan back bit for the first term that'd be awesome. The residence is ready from the 16th onwards which is today but no extra money is in my account yet, but it means i'm probably gonna pay back something unless i don't know i say something soon enough? What's best to do is it too late for me to say anything?
Ring your Admissions Office and ask.
No other way to find out.

If you defer a year now you either won't get the payment or they'll ask for the whole lot back straight away if you have got it. And they won't let you delay it because they're basically paying you for a term you're not doing....

Yeah awesome. I hate this bit coz i dont know what is best for the future blah blah...
I dont think getting a job will be a waste and i hope thats not too much affected on the time you apply. Whereas travelling obviously is a bit harder to plan rn

You need to speak to the university, none of us can tell you if it's too late. Have you signed a contract for your accommodation? If you have you need to check because a lot of places say you are responsible for your rent unless you can find someone to replace you.
