On occasion, students may be well advised to take temporary leave of the College community. Leaves of absence may be granted for a variety of reasons: personal, financial, medical, or family related. Some may be related to travel, educational or vocational goals, or to undertake a work experience that is not possible in Summer or Short terms. Students on leave of absence are withdrawn from the College with automatic readmission at the end of the approved leave period. Leaves of absence may be no longer than one regular term plus a Short Term. Students on any type of probation are not eligible for a leave of absence. Procedures for applying for a leave of absence are described in the Student Handbook. Students who withdraw two times from the College for any reason, including leave of absence, normally would not be readmitted.
College credit earned while on leave is transferable to Berea under the stipulations for transfer credit set forth in the Berea College Catalog. Because students enrolled elsewhere are ineligible for participation in the Berea College Financial Aid Program, any application for student aid must be administered through the other institution.
