How do I apply for leave of absence?

A student who for good reason wishes to be absent from an academic programme for a semester or an academic year must apply for formal Leave of Absence through the Dean’s Office. The Leave of Absence request form may be downloaded from the Faculty website.


Leave of Absence may be granted for one semester or for an academic year. Leave of Absence, however, will not be granted for more than two consecutive academic years, or in the first year of the programme. A student who wishes to deregister from all courses in the first year of their programme must request deferral until either the next semester or the next academic year.
