Application for Leave of Absence

Use this form if you wish to apply for LEAVE OF ABSENCE from your studies at CHC (suspend your studies for a specified period) either prior to the Census Date in a current semester, or for a subsequent semester.

 If you are a Ministries student please complete the Ministries Leave of Absence form on our website.

Applications for leave of absence do not attract a fee.

You may apply for leave of absence after being enrolled in your course for the period of ONE semester, and may take leave of absence for an initial period of six or 12 months, after which you may apply for a further period of up to 12 months. Approved periods of leave of absence do contribute to course completion times.

While it is possible to take leave of absence at any time after being enrolled for one semester of study, please be aware there may be consequences for your studies in terms of the availability and sequencing of units.

Students who apply for leave of absence on or before the Census Date in a current semester, and whose applications are approved, are given a full refund of any tuition fees or student contribution amounts paid upfront for that semester and no academic penalty is recorded for that semester.

Please note that you may not apply for leave of absence past the Census Date of a current semester.
