Basic Repeat Policies You can only repeat a course one time to replace a grade. Grades in third attempts of a course will not be calculated into your GPA, but will be shown on your transcript. If you earned a grade of D+, D, D-, or F, you must take your repeat for a letter grade.
Retaking a course may raise your student's GPA (grade point average). In many schools, if a student retakes a course, the most recent grade will replace the lower grade in the student's GPA. The earlier, lower grade will remain on the transcript, but will not be included in the GPA.
Although the previous attempts remain on your academic record, only the most recent attempt counts toward your credit totals and grade point averages. Any grade(s) awarded in prior attempt(s) will remain on your transcript designated as "No Credit Retained" (NCR).
The second grade always replaces the first grade. However, you can retake a class and get a worse grade. For example, if you have a D (a passing grade) and retake a course and receive an F (a failing grade), you now have a failing grade in the course and will have to take the class for a third time.
Even if you do fail, you can retake the class and ask for help. Although it will negatively impact your GPA and could affect your financial obligations, you can bounce back. Start by asking for more help and studying differently or harder if you retake the course. Most importantly, don't give up.

Failing & Then Re-Taking a Class Croskey notes that dropping a class is better than withdrawing, but withdrawing is better than failing. “A failing grade will lower the student's GPA, which may prevent a student from participating in a particular major that has a GPA requirement,” Croskey says.

What are the consequences of failing a class so many times? It would affect your GPA. If your GPA drops to 2.0 or below, you would be put on probation. Depending on the school you're attending, how long this probation period would be would differ.
