Temporary Withdrawal or Permanent Withdrawal?
A temporary withdrawal is a request to interrupt or suspend your course with plans to re-join it
in
a year’s time. You may be able to temporarily withdraw for less than a year but you can’t
temporarily
withdraw for more than a year.
A permanent withdrawal is leaving your course with no plans to return at a later date.
Please find the key documents for Withdrawal below:
If you withdraw, you will be able to take any credits which you've earned on your degree to another education
provider if you decide to go back into education at a later date.
Before you withdraw, speak to your Faculty Academic team and Faculty Registry Team, and the Student Finance Team.
If
you withdraw part way through the semester and receive a maintenance loan from Student Finance England, you may
have
an overpayment from SFE and they are likely to contact you and ask you to pay it back. You can find more
information
regarding Student Finance England overpayment on their website.
If you withdraw and decide to start a new degree at a later date, previous funding may affect your student
finance
entitlement, which is calculated on the duration of your course, minus any previous study, plus one
extra
year.
