Residential Education

F.A.Q.s:

Will my leave be listed on my official transcript?

If a leave is processed during the semester, the transcript will note that the student took a leave during that semester, but the type of leave will not be indicated. If a leave is processed in between semesters, the transcript will just have a gap between the semesters that a student was registered. If you intend to take classes or transfer to another college or university, you may need a copy of your MIT transcript. You can obtain a copy through the Registrar's Office.
