All students (domestic and international) seeking to take a temporary break in their studies are required to apply for a leave of absence.

International students are bound by Australian immigration legislation which only allows students a leave of absence on one the following grounds:

• compassionate or compelling circumstances, or
• misconduct by the student.

A leave of absence can only be approved based on compassionate or compelling circumstances beyond your control.

These circumstances include, but are not limited to:

• serious illness or injury, where a medical certificate states that the student was unable to attend class
• bereavement of close family members such as parent or grandparent (where possible, a death certificate should be provided, and evidence of relationship to the deceased)

Each application will be considered on its merits and assessed on a case-by-case basis according to the ICMS policy and procedures and the requirements of individual courses.

If you’re an international student, ICMS is required to report any period of leave of absence to Department of Home Affairs.

Behaviour that is intimidating, abusive, disrespectful, or threatening, including instances of sexual harm or rape is NOT acceptable within our community or on our campuses. Sexual Harm is not acceptable behaviour within the wider community and not at ICMS.

ICMS is committed to ensuring that there are clearly defined standards of behaviour and conduct for all enrolled students. By adhering to this Student Code of Conduct, students will ensure that both they and their peers will be afforded a safe and productive environment in which to study.

Unwanted sexual attention, including harassment, can prevent students from taking part in activities and involvement during their time at ICMS.

If an incident of sexual harm occurs to any student or member of staff, you can access support (even if the incident does not occur on campus) here.

IMPORTANT

1. Do not attend campus if you feel at all unwell or have returned a positive Rapid Antigen Test (RAT) or PCR test. You may still attend classes online.
2. If you have reason to believe you may have been exposed to COVID, or if you feel at all unwell please take a RAT (test) at home:
   • if negative with no symptoms – you may attend classes
   • if negative RAT but have symptoms – get a PCR test and self-isolate until you receive negative PCR result
   • if positive RAT or PCR – follow the current government regulations regarding release and recovery from COVID 19 here
