<p>if there is a time limit, how long is it?</p>
<p>I don’t know if there is a time limit, or how long it is, or if it’s even defined. If you leave for a semester, or a year, or two, you shouldn’t have any problems. I met one person who was gone for something like 10 years, and what they made him do was retake the prerequisite courses (presumably to refresh his memory and because the content of courses like Engr 101 has changed considerably) but they still let him come back.</p>
<p>If you’re planning on having to leave for 10 years I would just suggest not going to college right now. If you are worried that you might have to leave for a semester or a year, then don’t worry about it, it won’t cause problems.</p>
<p>On a rereading of your question, what I’m talking about is if you’re just not enrolled for a few semesters. If you go through some formal drop-out process (if there even is such a process) then I have no idea what happens.</p>
<p>what do u mean by “drop out”? im pretty sure not attending a yr of college is fine, i mean youre simply not registered for those terms, no biggie.</p>
<p>Best to investigate this question at the Registrar’s office, because you don’t want to be wrong. Every school has different rules.</p>
