Withdrawal, Academic Leave of Absence and Readmission

Students who believe they should withdraw from college must confer with the Dean of Students office relative to (1) the implications and advisability of leaving the College, (2) the procedures to be followed, and (3) returning to the College at some future time if appropriate. Students who exit the college and bypass the procedures listed above may receive grades of F and will be ineligible for the customary adjustment on education fees.

An academic leave of absence provides students with a one semester opportunity (two semesters in special cases) to pursue an academic or non-academic experience not available at Augustana. Re-enrollment to the college after a leave of absence assumes a successful performance at another college if the leave was for the purpose of academic study. The academic leave of absence entitles the student to pre-register for classes and to reserve housing and financial aid for the academic term immediately following the leave. Details relative to an academic leave of absence are available from the Dean of Students office.

An individual who has previously attended Augustana College and desires readmission may contact the Dean of Students office for the appropriate procedure.
