LEAVING
OBERLIN COLLEGE
Q: My daughter wants to transfer to another school.
What does she need to do to
withdraw?
A: Students withdrawing permanently from Oberlin must apply
through the Associate
Dean of Studies. Conservatory and Double-Degree students should first consult
their principal
advisors and the Associate Dean of the Conservatory. All students who receive
financial aid
from Oberlin College must consult with the Office of Financial Aid before withdrawing.
Please
note that if students just want to take some time off from college and plan
to return, they are
encouraged to request a personal leave of absence, not to withdraw.
Q: My son withdrew from Oberlin last year. Can
he return now?
A: Withdrawn students must submit a Readmission/Reinstatement
form to the Registrar's
Office for readmission to Oberlin. Under some circumstances, students are asked
to submit
additional materials prior to action on their applications. Appropriate forms
and materials
must be received by August 1 for fall semester and by January 2 for spring semester.
Students
must be cleared for readmission/reinstatement by August 15 for fall semester
or January 15 for
spring semester in order to enroll for that semester. No exceptions are made.
