Should I delay my graduation if I am not going to be on campus for a year?

My school recently announced that students won't be on campus for the entire year. I don't want to pay for full-tuition online school for a year, so would it be acceptable to delay graduation by one year and apply for SA2022? I am looking at working and traveling if I can during this break, so would be a gap-year of sorts. Would any bank look at this negatively?

how are you going to "travel" or "study abroad" or even "do something in finance" that's not remote? Many have considered gap years but its literally during covid-19 so you can't do anything besides stay home
