Can I take a leave of absence when I have a scholarship?

UPDATED 02 SEP 2025 | 3:45PM

If you are in receipt of a continuing scholarship, a leave of absence may be allowed for up to 12 months. Refer to your scholarship's terms and conditions for further clarification.

If the scholarship does not allow a leave of absence, but you have exceptional circumstances,  and supply an explanation and reason as well as any supporting documentation if appropriate to request for approval.
