Update Revision Responsibility: Vice President of Academic Affairs 

A student who receives a grade of B, C, D, or F in courses may repeat these courses in an effort to improve their grades in these courses and/or their overall grade point average (GPA).

Students may attempt a course three times.

Students shall not be permitted to receive financial aid for more than one repetition of a previously passed (A, B, C, D, P) course unless the course was designed to be repeated. 

Please note: Some majors may have more restrictive policies for repetition of courses.

S3.4.1 Repetition of Courses Procedure

At the end of each term the registrar’s office will code all eligible, repeated courses as repeats. Grades of W, NC, FW (effective summer 2016) do not impact a student’s GPA and will not be coded as a repeated course.

The highest grade earned in the repeated course will be used in calculating the student’s grade point average (GPA). Repeating a course more than once will result in the removal of only one previous grade from the GPA calculation. Coding courses as repeats will affect a student’s completion rate as all attempts of a course will count in determining percentage of completion rate and maximum time frame.

All course attempts will remain on the student’s permanent academic record.
