Leave of Absence (LOA) from College

A Leave of Absence is a "time certain" withdrawal from Clarkson College.  Leaves are granted for a minimum of one semester and a maximum of three consecutive semesters and are processed before the semester begins.  Any student on a Leave of Absence (LOA) who does not register in any classes after three consecutive semesters will be automatically withdrawn from the College.  For further information refer to the Clarkson College Catalog, contact your advisor or the Registrar's Office.

  

Official Withdrawal from College 

Students in good standing who wish to discontinue enrollment at Clarkson College may do so by withdrawal. The Student must see their advisor to initiate the process.  Students, who withdraw from the College must reapply for admission. They will be subject to the provisions of the Catalog at the time of readmission. If the student is unable to complete the degree because of changes in the Catalog, the program Dean/Director, upon approval of the Vice President of Academic Affairs, may determine substitutions.
