FORMS / For students

Regular students may request, upon justification, a leave of absence, no longer than 365 days, whenever they are temporarily unable to continue their academic activities.

Please hand the reports to the PPGEP-EPUSP secretariat:

– Student’s request with reasoning for leave of absence, duration in days, and date of start, which may be prior to the request date if the reason is still holding.
– Documentary evidence for the leave of absence. Those can be personal health, family member health, or professional. If the reason is professional, please attach a letter from the employer, stating the period of absence.
– Letter from the advisor with opinion on the student’s academic evolution and updated time schedule, according to the new thesis/dissertation deposit deadline.

The request will be assessed at the CCP-EPUSP meeting and forwarded to the CPG meeting. In case of health issue, CPG may forward the request to be decided by the CoPGr (Pro-Rectory).
