How do I take a leave of absence?

Be sure to talk to your Advising Dean if you are contemplating a leave of absence.  

Voluntary Leaves are taken for a variety of reasons.  For more information, review our Voluntary Leave of Absence Policy.  If you wish to take a Voluntary Leave once the semester has already started, you must discuss your plans with your Advising Dean and present a petition to the Committee on Academic Standing.
