minus-square@CoreidanlinkEnglish0•4 days agoIt doesn’t work that way. You can’t just come back to a phd program after leaving it. It’s not like undergrad.
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilinkEnglish5•4 days agoYes, you can. I’ve welcomed 3 doctoral program folks back just this past semester.
minus-square@CoreidanlinkEnglish0•edit-24 days agoDid they have an approved leave of absence with a planned return or did they just fall off the side of the planet and then later just show up? It’s rare to find a school that would entertain such a thing. I doubt that is the case with those people you’re talking about. Without a leave of absence you’ll likely need to reapply and get new letters of recommendation , etc. Your chances at that point are pretty low.
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilinkEnglish5•edit-24 days agoNo, they withdrew, one about a decade ago, and then re-applied. Its not nearly as hard as you are making it out to be. Not much different than a new applicant, except we know they know how to be a doctoral program member, and do things like be an intern, or RA.
