A Leave of Absence (LOA ) is a temporary interruption in a student’s programme of study. A LOA cannot exceed 180 days in any 12-month period and may have a serious impact on a student’s financial aid. Any student considering requesting a LOA who is in receipt of US Loans should consult with the Financial Aid Office to determine how their financial aid will be affected. Details on the University’s Policy for a Leave of Absence can be found here.
It is a statutory requirement that students awarded Stafford loans are considered to be making Satisfactory Academic Progress in order for the disbursement of loans to continue. Details on the University’s policy for Satisfactory Academic Progress for US loans students can be found here.
