1-8 (1) (1) Undergraduate: Undergraduate school: Number of students on leave of Number absence of students on leave of absence
The number of students on leave of absence is increasing steadily since Academic Year 2010. The number of students whose reason for taking the leave of absence is “study abroad” is also increasing similarly, and a large increase of more than 70 students is seen in Academic Years 2013 to 2014. The major factor for the rapid increase since Academic Year 2013 was the revision of tuition and fees structure planned in Academic Year 2014 and the anticipated reduction of tuition and fees during leave of absence starting in Academic Year 2013. An increase is seen in number of students due to changes made in admission capacity since Academic Year 2012 and the percentage of number of students on leave of absence among the total number of students is also increasing from 3.1% in Academic Year 2012 to 4.1% in Academic Year 2012. Number of students taking leave of absence is large in two Faculties, Foreign Studies and Humanities. Both Faculties have a high percentage of students whose reason for taking the leave of absence is “study abroad; in Academic Year 2014, the percentage was about 70% (110 students out of 158) for Faculty of Foreign Studies, and 57% (56 students out of 98) for Faculty of Humanities.
