Application for Leave of Absence

Any matriculated student making satisfactory academic progress, or a student on academic probation, not in probationary status may request a leave of absence from the College, which withdraws the student from all of their courses but keeps their student status active. The leave of absence form may be submitted for minimum one term or maximum up to a full academic year*. The student must submit the Leave of Absence request form a request to go on a leave of absence to the Registrar’s Office no later than the Withdrawal deadline (the end of the eleventh week of the term) in which the leave takes effect. In exceptional emergency circumstances, the Registrar may consider a student’s petition for a Leave of Absence after the Withdrawal Deadline. 

Students on a Leave of Absence will receive W grades for any courses they attended beyond the Add-Drop deadline. The student’s submission date of the leave of absence form will be the date used for the last date of attendance.

Students on leave will keep their academic advisor and success coach, and will continue to be kept informed of pertinent College activities and deadlines, especially registration information for the next term. Any enrollments at other post-secondary institutions should be reviewed for transferability and applicability of the credit. Readmission is guaranteed assuming the student resumes enrollment at the College within the specified time. No additional applications are needed for students to return. Returning students will receive a registration time and will need to meet with their advisor to be cleared for registration. Students who do not return from leave within one academic year will be withdrawn from the College, and required to apply for readmission.

*If you are a part of the Dual Degree Engineering program, the leave of absence will be extended either two or three academic years per the requirement of the external institution. If the program completion will extend beyond the original time period, please resubmit an updated leave of absence form.
