Discontinuation, academic leave of absence

Discontinuation, academic leave of absence

Academic leave of absence

If you need to take a break from your studies, you must apply for an academic leave of absence to be guaranteed a place on the programme after the break. If you take an unannounced break, you are not guaranteed a place on the programme when you return.

To return to your studies after your academic leave of absence, apply to your courses as usual within your programme via universityadmissions.se.

Discontinuation

If you want to discontinue a course of programme you have to notify the department. Discontinuing a course or programme means you give up your place.

If you discontinue your studies within three weeks of the start of the course, it will be an early discontinuation. If you make an early discontinuation from a course or programme, you can apply for the course/programme again in the future.

If you discontinue your studies later than three weeks after the start of the course, it will be a late discontinuation. This means that you cannot apply for the course again. If you want to take the course at a later date, you can be re-registered on the course if there is place available.

You can report discontinuation on single courses in Ladok. If you want to discontinue the programme you have to report via the form.
