Resumption of Study from a Leave

a) The student wishing to return to the College from a medical leave of absence must notify the Office of Student Success in writing and present a written verification on official letterhead from a health professional stating that the student is deemed medically able to return to the College. Requests should be made as far in advance as possible of the semester in which she/he expects to return.

b) The student requesting to return after normal registration or housing selection processes is not guaranteed course and room preference. Students returning from a medical leave of absence are required to meet with counseling or health services staff to ascertain the degree of counseling or health care support needed and to make arrangements, when appropriate, for off-campus and on-campus support services tailored to their individual needs.

c) Students return to the College under the same academic status they departed. Students placed on academic probation prior to their leave are still considered on probationary status upon their return.

d) If there are any student conduct charges pending involving the student requesting the leave, those proceedings will continue during the student’s absence.

e) Students should re-enroll in the coursework he/she began prior to the leave at the start of the next available semester.
