Leave of Absence
A student may request an official leave of absence, not to exceed six months. When a student anticipates being out of school beyond the current semester, the student should complete a Leave of Absence form. When an official leave of absence is granted, it will not be necessary for the student to go through the process of readmission to the University if the student returns in the semester or term designated on the request and if the student informs the Office of Academic Records of their intention to return two weeks prior to the enrollment period. A student who has been on leave of absence may return under the rules of the catalog when he or she was first admitted. If the student does not return from a leave of absence after six months they will be administratively withdrawn and their academic record will be archived.
