CFA Institute- Approved- Defer Activation? activate, approved, frame, decide, before

siavosh

Right before the test I submitted my application to join CFAI. I was just approved and need to activate. Just wondering- is there a time frame by which I must activate? I feel pretty good about the test, but can I wait until August 6th to decide if I’m going to activate, or must I do it before then?
Thanks
