To return to active status and to be eligible for funding in the next academic term, students must notify the Graduate School in writing by 1 May for a fall-semester return and by 1 November for a spring-semester return. 

A student who has taken a leave of absence should write to the Director of Graduate Studies to request readmission. If the request is supported, the Director of Graduate Studies will endorse and forward the request to the Graduate School for review and approval by the Dean.
