Leave of Absence (LOA)
We understand that your circumstances can change. If you wish to take time off from your course you may be able to apply for a Leave of Absence (LOA). On this page, you will find frequently asked questions regarding the LOA application form and its procedure, terms and conditions, and outcomes.
What's the difference between a Leave of Absence and a Deferral?
A leave of absence is a period that allows you to take a temporary break from studies once you have completed one or more terms of your enrolled course. If you cannot commence your course as planned or enrol in your first term, you should apply for a deferral. Please get in touch with our Admission team for further information via application@imc.edu.au. Please note that both deferral and LOA applications must be lodged before the census date.
