Break from Enrollment
Students may take an enrollment break from courses for less than three semesters or consecutive terms by notifying their designated student support staff member. These enrollment breaks, however, are determined by the university as not meeting the definition of an "approved" leave of absence (LOA) under Title IV regulations (see 34 CFR 668.22(d)(1)(vii). Students who take an enrollment break during a session at LAPU are not permitted to complete the coursework they began before the break without retaking their class. Students taking an enrollment break at LAPU during a session are reported as withdrawn from their coursework and are subject to Return to Title IV (R2T4) requirements. Students are advised to speak with their student accounts specialist about the ramifications of enrollment breaks for financial aid. Students who do not attend for three full semesters or consecutive terms will need to reapply to the university.
