PLANNED EDUCATIONAL LEAVE OF ABSENCE
A planned educational leave of absence is defined as a planned interruption or pause in
a student's regular education during which the student temporarily ceases his or her formal
studies at California State University, Fresno, while pursuing other activities that may assist
in clarifying the student's educational goals, provide job opportunities and practical
experiences away from the campus, allow time for the solution of personal problems, and
enhance the prospect of successful completion of the student's academic program. The
intent of the policy is to make it possible for a student to suspend his or her academic work,
leave the campus without jeopardizing the rights and privileges normally associated with
continuous attendance, and later resume his or her studies with a minimum of procedural
difficulty. A student who is approved for a planned leave will be considered as maintaining
his or her status as a continuing CSUF student. A student may, therefore, enroll for classes
at the end of an approved leave without reapplying for admission and may continue at CSUF
without change in graduation requirements.
Planned eduationalleaves may be granted for a variety of reasons or projects, but certain
characteristics must be contained in any request for a· leave:
1. The student must have a definite objective, which in the judgment of the Admissions
Committee, will contribute to his educational goals and objectives.
2. The request must be for a specific period of time which shall not exceed one academic
year.
3. The student must plan to return to CSUF at the conclusion of his or her leave.
The following regulations will apply to the planned educational leave:
1. A student who has been admitted to a fully matriculated session may be considered for
a planned educational leave.
2. A student may be granted only one leave as an undergraduate and one leave as a graduate
student.
3. Planned educational leaves will be granted for up to one academic year.
4. Leaves must be recommended by a faculty member or by a member of the counseling
staff. Graduate students must be recommended by the Dean of Graduate Studies;
international students by the Coordinator of International Student Counseling.
5. Petitions for planned educational leaves must be filed (with the appropriate
recommendation) at the Admissions Office before the first day of classes for the semester
during which the leave is to begin.
6. Leaves will not be approved for students in disqualified status or on contract to remove
academic deficiencies.
7. It is expected that a student will devote his or her leave primarily to nonclassroom
activities. While on leave, however, a student may enroll at another educational institution
if the course work the student seeks is not available at CSUF. Any academic credit earned
while on a planned educational leave will be accredited by CSUF only if permission is
granted for that credit in advance by the Admissions Officer.
8. Students who do not return to the university at the conclusion of their planned
educational leave and those who enroll elsewhere without permission of the Admissions
Officer will be considered to have withdrawn from the university at the end of their last
semester of regular enrollment at CSUF.
Students wishing to apply for a planned educational leave should follow these procedures:
1. Obtain a petition for a planned educational leave from the Admissions Office.
2. Complete the petition and obtain the appropriate recommendations and return them to
the Admissions Office.
3. The student will be notified of the decision by the Admissions Officer.
