Return from Academic Suspension or Leave of Absence

Return from Academic Suspension

UNDERGRADUATE STUDENTS
Durham and Manchester undergraduate students that wish to return from an Academic Suspension must complete a Reactivation from Academic Suspension or Leave of Absence Form. The form will be reviewed by the Dean’s Office of the student’s home college (or the UNH Manchester Director of Academic Advising for UNH Manchester students). Students must provide a statement explaining why they believe they can successfully complete a UNH degree program and specific steps they will take to ensure future academic success.

If approved, the student will be reinstated into the major they left and will receive confirmation from the Office of the Registrar. If the student no longer qualifies for the major they left, their request for return will be reviewed by the College of Liberal Arts Dean’s Office for reactivation into the Undeclared major.

Return from Academic Suspension Deadline
The Reactivation from Academic Suspension or Leave of Absence form must be submitted no later than 2 weeks before the semester of return begins.
