A Regular Leave of Absence requires a minimum GPA of 2.0, with no pending academic dismissal or disciplinary action. Occasionally, students may need to take off a semester or two because of personal circumstances (e.g., financial/family concerns, employment opportunities, travel, taking courses at another institution to fulfill graduation requirements, etc.)
A Medical Leave of Absence requires submission of the medical leave form, authorization for release of information form, as well as specific documentation from your provider. In addition, documentation from your provider is also required in order to register and return to the college. Please refer to the Medical Leave of Absence webpage for more information.
Students who are eligible for a regular leave and have submitted the application indicating on the form that they plan to submit documentation for a medical leave request will have 30 days to submit the required documents.
Students who are not eligible for a regular leave and want to request a medical leave during a semester have 2 weeks to submit the required documentation, after the initial communication.
Students have 30 days from the notification of an approved regular leave to request the leave be changed to a medical leave. Required documentation must be submitted at the time of the request and it will be reviewed to see if it meets medical leave approval.
