Interruption of Studies

Effective Fall 2019

Graduate students who have been absent from the College for two or more consecutive semesters, up to a maximum of three years, must submit a Graduate Application for Readmission through the Office of Graduate Admissions to resume their studies.

Students who have been absent for three or more years must formally reapply to the College by submitting a new graduate application. If re-accepted into the program, the student’s curriculum year and degree completion timeline will be reset to align with the term of re-entry. Students will be required to follow the current curriculum requirements and comply with all existing academic policies in effect at the time of re-admission.

Please note: Coursework completed more than seven years prior to the re-acceptance term will not be applied toward the degree. Students absent for seven years (or) more are not eligible to reapply to the original, incomplete program. Refer to the Seven-Year Inactivity Policy for additional information.

Non-matriculated graduate students who have not enrolled for any length of time must reapply to the College by submitting the Graduate Application for Non-Degree Admission and paying the applicable application fee.
