A Leave of Absence (LOA) allows students to return and complete a degree after one or two semesters away from CCCB. LOA applications are available in the academic services office and on CCCB’s website. An approved LOA may last up to two consecutive semesters.
In order to receive an LOA, the following criteria are required:
- The student must have a CGPA of 2.00.
- The student must have all bills paid to CCCB.
- The student must be registered the semester immediately preceding the request for the LOA.
- The student must have no pending disciplinary action (dismissal, suspension, or probation).
- The student must submit documentation for an extended Field Education Experience, Medical LOA, or approved studies at another institution.
- The student may only apply for an LOA prior to the first semester in which the LOA would apply.
Results of a leave of absence:
- The student is allowed to pre-register for the next semester’s classes as if currently enrolled as a student.
- The LOA is an academic leave of absence. For federal student aid purposes, students will be withdrawn from school and a Return of Title IV funds calculation will be completed if a student leaves in the middle of a semester. Exit counseling will be completed with the student or exit counseling information will be sent to the student if they are not available for a one on one interview.
- The student will withdraw from CCCB.
