Take Some Time Away
Many students take planned time away from 杏吧直播app or need to stop taking classes unexpectedly, while others choose to withdraw or transfer. Planning your time away and telling the university what you intend to do can make your exit from—as well as re-entry back into school—easier, help you avoid unnecessary hurdles, and get you support to ease the transition.
Students who plan to take a leave of absence or withdraw from the university are urged to use the Withdrawal Checklist. Please follow the instructions to make sure you withdraw successfully. Graduate and Doctoral Professional Practice students are especially encouraged to consult with their Academic Dean’s Office. If you are a student and want to withdraw from the university or take a leave of absence, complete the 杏吧直播app University Withdrawal/Leave Form.
Mid-Semester Medical Leave of Absence
Undergraduate students who need to discontinue studies during the course of a semester for medical reasons (physical and/or mental health) can request a mid-semester medical leave.
Undergraduate students who are having medical difficulty are encouraged to contact the Dean of Students office to discuss the details of the medical leave request and to explore options to support their long-term success. The Dean of Students office will confer with other University offices as needed on issues affecting the student and their studies. Graduate and professional students should contact their academic dean’s office. More information about Medical Leaves can be found in the . Undergraduate students may request a medical leave of absence from the university by submitting the 杏吧直播app Withdrawal/Leave of Absence Form and submitting supporting documentation as described in the Medical Leave policy.
University Withdrawal or Personal Leave of Absence
Students may officially withdraw or request a personal leave of absence from the university by submitting the 杏吧直播app Withdrawal/Leave of Absence Form. Students who leave during a semester receive a “W” for each course in which they are enrolled if the effective date is before the “Last day for withdrawing from courses with ‘W’ on transcript” as posted on the Academic Calendar; students withdrawing after this date will receive letter grades for their courses. More information about and the can be found in the current academic catalog.
Effective Date
The effective date of an official withdrawal or leave of absence is the date the student submits the 杏吧直播app Withdrawal/Leave of Absence Form or the last documented date of an academically-related activity in which the student participated.
Absence from class without completing the official withdrawal/leave process does not constitute withdrawal nor does the submission of course drop/withdrawal forms. If a student leaves the University without providing official notification, the withdrawal date is the midpoint of the payment period or period of enrollment, as applicable, or the last documented date of an academically-related activity in which the student participated. Academically-related activities include physically attending a class where there is an opportunity for direct interaction between the instructor and students; submitting an academic assignment; taking an exam; participating in an interactive tutorial or computer-assisted instruction; attending a study group that is assigned by the University; participating in an online discussion about academic matters; and initiating contact with a faculty member to ask a question about the academic subject studied in the course.

For deadlines and more specific information please check with your academic dean’s office.
Graduate and Professional Doctorate Students
Eligibility for readmission is limited to students who were in good standing at the time of their withdrawal. Courses older than eight years cannot be used toward the degree.
