Matriculated students may interrupt continuous enrollment by electing to take a leave of absence from the University for up to two consecutive semesters. During this time a student maintains his/her matriculation at the university. If the leave of absence exceeds two consecutive semesters the student will lose his/her matriculation status and will need to apply for readmission to the University through the Admission’s Office. Further information regarding this policy can be found in the Academic Catalog. Before taking a leave of absence, students are encouraged to discuss their decision with their academic adviser. Students should also consider any potential financial impact by discussing their leave with the One Stop Student Financial and Registrar Services Office prior to completing this form. Please note, this form must be submitted to the Office of the University Registrar on or before the first day of classes of the semester they wish their leave of absence to become effective.
