What is an "exeat"?
An exeat is a permission granted, typically in schools or universities, allowing a student to leave the premises for a specific period. It is often used for short-term absences, such as leaving for a weekend or a break, and may require approval from the school authorities. The term is commonly used in British schools, particularly in boarding schools, where students need official permission to leave during term time.
Example
The boarding school granted him an exeat, allowing him to leave campus for the weekend to visit his family.
Students must obtain permission from the school administration before taking an exeat to leave campus during term time.
