Notification of Leave


Notification of Leave

Undergraduate

Undergraduate students who wish to discontinue their studies for one or more semesters (with the exception of summer term) are encouraged to complete a Notification of Leave at usu.edu/retention/nol/. New students may file an admission deferral at the same website.

Former students of the university returning after an absence of three years or longer are required to file an application for readmission.

USU’s Changes in Registration: Dropping, Withdrawing, and Late Semester Requests  policy explains how a Notification of Leave will affect a student’s transcript.

Graduate

A graduate leave of absence, during which neither continuous registration or a $100 payment is required, may be granted under the following conditions:

  1. Illness, required military service, or other extenuating circumstances acceptable to the department head and the graduate dean.
  2. Lack of availability of courses in a planned Statewide Campuses and Distance Education program.
  3. Participation in a planned program based primarily on summer semester courses.

For either 2 or 3, the student must have an approved Program of Study on file in the School of Graduate Studies before a leave will be granted.
