• Be an employee of Colorado State University (Part-time employees are eligible, but their leave is prorated based on the percentage of their appointment.)
• Be performing at a level to merit such leave.
• Have the permission of your supervisor on the VIPS Leave Authorization Form.
• Once you have been approved to participate in the program, you handle the leave within your department, just as you would any other kind of leave. Departments should process VIPS leave as administrative leave.

To sign up click on the VIPS Leave Authorization Form. Complete the form and meet with your supervisor to discuss your participation.
