Withdrawing from your course
If you no longer want to continue your course at Macquarie, you might need to apply for Withdrawal and Release.
Before you apply
Here are some things to be mindful of:
- If you take a break of less than 12 months:
- student visa holders can apply of a Suspension of studies
- non student visa holders apply for a Leave of absence
- Anyone wanting to return after a break of more than 12 months will need to reapply.
- If you want to study fewer units per study period, you may be eligible to reduce your study load.
Did you know? If you have no recorded results in your course at Macquarie, you are not 'effectively enrolled'.
You may be able to defer your offer or will need to reapply if you want to study with us.
To request Withdrawal and Release you must:
- be on a student visa
- have no outstanding debts or fines
- have exceptional circumstances (as outlined in the policy)
