Leave of Absence and Withdrawal Processes
Exit interviews are conducted by a member of the vice president's staff with all students who choose
to study for a semester at another location or who plan to leave Ithaca College temporarily or
permanently. These interviews are done to ensure that students are making appropriate life decisions
and to assist them in the transition. During the meeting, the student and staff member discuss the
student's intentions and plans. Students are counseled on appropriate alternatives and strategies to
follow to best utilize their time away from the College. This meeting also gives students the
opportunity to have their questions answered about the leave of absence or withdrawal process.
To schedule an exit interview students should contact Doreen Hettich-Atkins at
607-274-3374.

College Undergraduate Catalog.
