2011-2012 Archived Catalog Information

A leave of absence may be granted for two consecutive or two non-consecutive semesters (excluding summers). A student applying for a leave of absence must give a definite date for return. Students on leave will be required to meet the degree requirements under which they were admitted. A leave of absence may not be used for the purpose of taking academic courses at another institution with the intent of transferring the credits to Suffolk University. A leave of absence is granted through the Office of Student Affairs. Courses taken at other institutions while a student is on a leave of absence may not be transferred back to Suffolk University for credit. A matriculated student who does not return for reregistering at the specified semester will be classified as an official withdrawal and must apply for readmission through the Admissions Office.
