Leave of absence

Students who wish to take time off from study for any reason may apply for leave of absence. When granting such leave the faculty reserves a place in the course the following year and the period of leave will not be counted in the time limits for completion of the course. Leave is normally granted for one year only.

Those students intending to apply for leave of absence should write to one of the following staff:

the director of graduate studies, School of Graduate Studies (Clayton);
the senior administrative officer, Peninsula School of Education;
the student administration office, Gippsland School of Education.

Applications should include the reasons for requesting the proposed leave of absence on the appropriate form, which is available from the office of each of the schools.
