Temporary Withdrawal from a Graduate Program


Graduate School of Management degree students who must temporarily discontinue their graduate studies for one or more terms must request this before leaving their program. Students are urged to be extremely cautious in this request. During the temporary withdrawal period, students do not have enrollment status for purposes such as health insurance, loan deferment or access to academic facilities on campus, such as library and computer services.

Only written requests that include specific information about the need for the temporary withdrawal request and the expected date of return are considered. There is no guarantee that a request will be granted. All temporary withdrawals must be approved by the department director of graduate studies or chair, and the associate dean of the Graduate School of Management. The Temporary Withdrawal from a Graduate Program request form is available on the Graduate School of Management forms website.
