Summary of Changes from Previous Version
Deferred admission for students in the first session of study in a course (clause 87);
Leave of absence for continuing students after the first session of study (clause 88);
The requirement for students to successfully complete one or more units in their enrolled course to be eligible for leave of absence has been removed. Instead, applications for leave of absence simply need to be submitted prior to the census date of the teaching session in which leave is being sought (clause 92); and
Students who have an internal transfer request approved and request leave for the first semester of their new course are currently transferred back to their original course and placed on leave. This anomaly has been corrected by a new clause 93.
Clauses Amended
Procedure: 86-89, 92, 93, 98
