Students enrolled only in extension courses or as auditors are not eligible for leaves of absence.
Graduate students anticipating a leave of absence should visit the Office of Graduate Studies

Sacramento State students studying abroad through independent programs should contact the Office of
Global Education for information.
This leave of absence petition is NOT for students who will be taking courses at another accredited
college/university.
Sacramento State students who will not be enrolled at Sacramento State for only one semester DO
NOT need to petition for a leave of absence. Students are granted an automatic leave of absence for
one semester per University policy.
3. What if I need to file this petition in the middle of the semester?
Enrolled Sacramento State students requesting leaves during a semester must follow withdrawal
procedures. All contractual agreements (housing, financial aid, etc.) must be satisfactorily terminated.
4. Types of Approved Leaves of Absence:
Medical
A statement from a medical professional is required verifying the timeframe for the leave.
Leaves for pregnancy are restricted to the semester of delivery and the one following.
In the event a medical leave needs to be extended beyond the original approved leave, an additional leave
of absence petition and medical verification will be required.
Military
A copy of military orders indicating duration of service is required.
Eight semesters absence is the maximum which can be approved for military leaves.
Personal
Students who, for personal reasons, are temporarily unable to continue their program of study may request
a leave of absence not to exceed two semesters.
In the event a personal leave needs to be extended beyond the original approved leave, an additional leave
of absence petition with a statement of personal circumstances must be submitted.
Four semesters absence is the maximum which can be approved for personal reasons.
Planned Educational
This option is not for students who will be taking courses at another accredited college/university.

Department recommendation is required.
A planned educational leave may be granted for up to two years.
