Domestic and off-shore
If you’re a domestic or off-shore student enrolled in an eligible program, you can apply for a one-year Leave of Absence via myHub.
Leave of Absence
Domestic and offshore coursework students seeking leave of absence:
- of more than one academic year; or
- from a program excluded from automatic leave of absence (listed below)
must submit an Application for Leave of Absence, including any supporting documentation, prior to the commencement of the term of study in which they wish to begin their period of leave of absence.
Applications for leave of absence made by international students will only be considered where the student has demonstrated grounds that comply with the compassionate/compelling circumstances as per the Enrolment Procedure Manual.
Further information about leave of absence can be found in the Enrolment Procedure Manual or by emailing ProgramAdvice@newcastle.edu.au
