Medical Departure #


In rare cases, students may need to depart Stockholm before the end of the term due to an unexpected health issue. Permission to depart will only be granted with permission from the Director and the student’s home institution, and only if there is an unforeseen medical or other justifying circumstance. Please ask your treating physician, psychiatrist, psychologist, or similar to complete the Medical Withdrawal Form.

We will make every effort to ensure academic continuity, but the student’s ability to complete the term will depend on the specific circumstances and will thus be determined on a case-by-case basis.
