A leave of absence from the university may not exceed a cumulative total of two years (eight quarters, including summer quarters). </p><p><span>While on a leave of absence, you are considered unregistered and do not have the rights and privileges of registered students. You will have access to online resources such as Axess, Canvas, and your Stanford University email account. However, because you are considered unregistered, you do not have physical access to Stanford facilities, such as campus libraries, recreational facilities, buildings, offices, and housing residences or dormitories.</span></p><p><span>Department and university requirements cannot be fulfilled during your leave period, with the exception of working on incomplete grades.  Students on leave may complete course work for which an 'Incomplete' grade was awarded in a prior term (unless doing so places an undue burden on the part of an instructor, department, staff, or other university resource) and are expected to comply with the maximum one-year time limit for resolving incompletes; a leave of absence does not stop the clock on the time limit for resolving incompletes.</span></p><p>See the student policies for additional information: <a href="/more-resources/student-policies/leaves-reinstatements/undergraduate-degrees-programs-leaves" data-entity-type="node" data-entity-uuid="6eae51e3-0bbc-4d99-8bc8-70a549b33376" data-entity-substitution="canonical" title="Undergraduate Degrees & Programs: Leaves & Reinstatements">Undergraduate Leaves of Absence</a> and <a href="/more-resources/student-policies/leaves-reinstatements/graduate-degrees-leaves-reinstatements" data-entity-type="node" data-entity-uuid="451e71ec-b7d8-425e-9eb0-82420e364c40" data-entity-substitution="canonical" title="Graduate Degrees: Leaves & Reinstatements">Graduate Leaves of Absence</a>.</p><p><a name="submit"></a></p><h2>Submitting your leave of absence request</h2><p>Before taking a leave of absence, we recommend:</p><ul><li>Notifying the <a href="https://financialaid.stanford.edu/aid/special/leaving.html#:~:text=If%20you%20file%20a%20Leave,aid%20you%20are%20eligible%20for.">Financial Aid Office</a> to adjust your award if you are using federal student loans and/or a federal TEACH grant.</li><li>Adjusting your <a href="https://rde.stanford.edu/studenthousing/living-housing#rsas">housing assignment</a> if you live in Stanford student housing.</li><li>Contacting <a href="https://vaden.stanford.edu/insurance-referral-office/cardinal-care-overview-benefits/enrollment-cardinal-care">Vaden Health Services’ Insurance and Referral Office</a> if you are covered by Cardinal Care.</li><li>If you are an international student, we strongly encourage you to review the leave of absence guidelines listed on the <a href="https://bechtel.stanford.edu/immigration/visa-types/f-1j-1-student-visas/leave-absence">Bechtel International Center website</a>.
