What if I accepted and returned my Offer Response form and then decide not to study in 2008?

You will need to withdraw your enrolment in writing prior to the census date, so that you do not incur a student contribution or tuition fee charge. Your withdrawal should be directed to:

• Townsville: Your Faculty Office

• Cairns: Student Enquiry Centre

Postgraduate students should choose the ‘defer' option on their Response to Offer letter and return the letter to JCU at the address indicated on the form.

Students who have completed at least one subject and wish to take a break from their course must apply for Leave of Absence. If approved, Leave of Absence guarantees you a returning place in your course. You should check the maximum Leave of Absence permitted in your course with your faculty office.

Students who do not apply for Leave of Absence and fail to enrol in subjects in two consecutive Teaching Periods may be declared Absent Without Leave (AWOL). Such students forfeit their right to a guaranteed returning place in their course, and will need to contact their faculty office to apply to continue their studies at JCU.

If you decide not to complete your study in a course, you will need to advise the University in writing that you wish to withdraw. Please be advised that if you withdraw from your course then wish to return to study in the same course, you will need to reapply to the University. Your withdrawal should be directed to:

• Townsville: Your Faculty Office

• Cairns: Student Enquiry Centre
