Approved leave from studies
A student planning to take a temporary break from studies can apply for approved leave from studies. A decision regarding approved leave shall be given for a set period of time, after which the student is entitled to resume participation in the programme.
Kristianstad University approves leave from studies on special grounds. Special grounds may be social, medical or other special circumstances, such as care of a child, compulsory military or civilian service or service as a student union representative.
The University recommends that you apply for approved leave from studies via a special application form that the University provides on the website. This to ensure that the information needed is received in a comprehensive manner and to facilitate a legally secure assessment of the application and to minimize the processing time. If your application concerns a break during an ongoing semester, you need to state in your application from which date you wish your study break from. Please note that you can only apply for a study break from the date after your last grade was registered in Ladok. Application for approved leave from studies
