Withdrawal/Leave of Absence/Reinstatement

A student who is registered for a semester and decides not to attend must officially take a leave of absence or withdraw. A leave of absence should be taken when the student intends to return in a future semester; a withdrawal indicates a decision to permanently leave the University. Questions should be directed to metwdloa@bu.edu.
