Repeating a Course or Cluster

When a graduate student has received a C or an F in any part(s) of a cluster may repeat the entire cluster. The second grade does not replace the first grade; the two grades are averaged. For instance, if a student earns an 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.
