Repeating a Course

An undergraduate student may repeat any course in which the student earns a grade of C or lower. Only the highest grade earned will be used in the calculation of the grade point average. Repeating a course does not remove the previous grade from the transcript. Additional credit hours are not earned when a student repeats a course. A student's eligibility for federal financial aid may be affected if they choose to repeat a course. The university is under no obligation to offer a course aside from its usual schedule to accommodate a student repeating the course.

If a graduate student retakes a course, the second grade does not replace the first grade; the two grades are averaged. For instance, if a student earns a F for a class and retakes the class, earning an A, the two grades would be the equivalent of two Cs and would affect the overall grade point average as two Cs.
