How do I go on leave?
You have two options for going on leave during the quarter.
The first option is official leave. You need to pay $25 for this option. You can go on leave for one quarter at a time; however, you can string together requests for as many quarters as necessary. The specific steps for this option are as follows:
1. Submit the on-leave request via MyGrad-Student View. Note that the on-leave request site opens up only two weeks before the beginning of the quarter.
2. The PMP program (Dave, after sign-off by our PMP Faculty Coordinator) approves the request online.
3. You are notified by email to submit an online credit card payment for the quarterly $25 nonrefundable fee (only MasterCard or Visa may be used, and there is no service charge for credit card use). On-Leave status is not finalized until payment has been submitted and must be completed by the last day of instruction for the quarter of leave requested. However, our CSE internal deadline for this step is the Friday following the first week of classes.
The second leave option is for you to enroll in two colloquia only during the quarter. Students choosing this option should register for both CSE 519 and 520 in the same quarter.
The most important thing to know is that you MUST either go officially on leave (and pay the $25) OR enroll in at least two credits in order to keep your status with the program. If you do not complete one of the two options, you will have to reapply to the program and be reaccepted to take your final courses and earn your degree.
Please let Dave know if you are considering going on leave for the quarter.
