About Graduate Petitions
The graduate petition is required whenever a student wishes to take a Leave of Absence, request a retroactive change to their enrollment record, or wishes to request permission for an exception to a Graduate College policy. Petition forms route through various reviewers. Submission of a petition does not guarantee that it will be approved.
