Returning Students

If you attended the Kelley School of Business, IU Bloomington, in the past and wish to return:

• Read the Leave of Absence Frequently Asked Questions. All students that plan to return to the IU Bloomington campus are required to submit a Returning Student form.

If you plan to return for the summer/fall semesters, submit the forms by March 1 of the year you plan to return. If you plan to return for the spring semester, submit the forms by September 30 before the January when you plan to return. The Records Office will review the forms and your student record; they will send you an email once a decision has been made. You may submit these forms past the above deadlines; however, you may receive a much later registration time.

International students may have additional forms to complete prior to taking a leave of absence. Connect with the Office of International Student Services for additional information.

Multiple Withdrawals From All Subjects Petition

Indiana University Bloomington undergraduate students who complete a Withdrawal from All Subjects for two academic terms (fall, spring, or summer) will not be permitted to register for a future term without written permission of the dean of their college/school or the dean’s delegate. These students will have a Negative Service Indicator (hold) that prevents future registration placed on their record by the Office of the Registrar until such permission is obtained.

For Kelley School of Business students petitioning to register after multiple withdrawals, please contact busadv@indiana.edu to request permission to petition to have your hold removed. An academic advisor will reach out with more information about next steps.
