The official application period for leave of absence and return to school for the fall semester of 2023 was scheduled from August 1, 2023 to August 25, 2023 as indicated on KUPID. 

However, for KUBS students who were unable to apply during the scheduled period due to reasons such as qualification examinations, we are extending the application period as follows: 

1. Extended Period for Leave of Absence and Return to School: August 26, 2023 to September 12, 2023, 17:00 (within the final enrollment period for the fall semester) 

※ During the official period for leave of absence and return (August 1, 2023 to August 25, 2023), please refer to KUPID announcement and apply through KUPID. 

※ After the official course registration periods, course registration will not be unavailable for any reason. Students planning to return to school must register for courses during the designated period, regardless of their current leave and return status. 

※ After the aforementioned period has passed, returning to school is not possible, and a leave of absence during the semester(학기중휴학) will be the only option. 

(Students on leave of absence within the final enrollment period can receive a full tuition refund, which will be processed by the department in charge in October according to the academic schedule.) 

2. How to Apply for Leave of Absence and Return to School During the Extended Period  

1) Download and fill out the attached leave of absence and return application form. 

(Applying through KUPID is not available outside the official period.) 

※ Military leave/return and other special leave applicants must submit supporting documents separately. However, entrepreneurship leave (special leave) cannot be processed after the official application period, so please ensure that you apply within the official period. 

2) Submit the form in person to the administration office of undergraduate program at KUBS, Room #103, KUBS Main Building (in-person submissions only). 

3) After submission, it is mandatory to confirm your status changes on KUPID within 1-2 days. 

** Please carefully consider whether to apply for leave and return during the extended period as it is allowed once only (no changes are allowed after application submission). 

** Starting from the spring semester of 2024, leave of absence and return to school applications will only be possible during the official period. Please adhere to the schedule for future applications.

Refund percentages will apply according to the date of the application. The period for processing changes in academic records (leave during the semester) will not be possible starting Wednesday, September 27, 16:00 due to the school statistics process. Leave during the semester will be approved after this process.
