Anyone with the detailed and correct answer to the question posted above. I too have some similar question. 1) if we can take an off how many days we can stay away from classes w/o having to go for a visa interview again.
2) From when will they start counting the days away from classes? From the last day of previous semester or from the 1st day of coming semester.Comment

With a valid reason, you can take a break.
And do remember, you need to study for at least 2 semesters after your break. You cannot graduate the very next semester. I have a friend who is about to graduate, went back home for a semester due to medical reasons and he studied for one year taking extra course load once he came back.Comment
