There is no limit on the number of attempts allowed for the student to repeat a course, as long as he/she does not receive a passing grade in any of the previously repeated courses.
College students can retake a class a maximum of 3 times, most of the time. If they want to retake it a fourth time, they have to write a special letter to the school. It might not be worth it to redo a class so many times, as you would graduate late. Moreover, you would be spending extra, as your course would be prolonged.
Degree credit for a repeated course is be given only once, but the grades assigned for both the first and second time a course is taken appear on the student’s transcript.
Undergraduate students may only repeat courses in which they received a letter grade of D+ or below, or Not Passed, and I under certain situations ( DD Reg A540.F ). Courses in which a letter grade of D or F was received may not be repeated on a P/NP grading basis.
Students may retake a non-repeatable course in which they have two unsuccessful attempts only after completing college intervention. Repeatable courses may be repeated per the education code and the district policy.
Repeating courses in which you received a C- or better will not improve your grade; the UCs will just ignore the repeated course when calculating your GPA.
Undergraduate students may take an individual course no more than three times. Only one repeat per course is permitted for improving the grade, with the higher of the two grades counted in the student's GPA.
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.
If a student was held back in their high school years (once your GPA begins to count towards college applications), their GPA will likely be dramatically lower due to the failed classes. To put it clearly, colleges will not look at if a student had to redo a year, but they will refer to their GPA.
The short answer is yes, a failing grade will have a negative impact on your application. After all, colleges are academic institutions that want to admit students who will succeed in a rigorous and demanding intellectual environment.
1) Not only do schools have repeat-option policies, most schools allow you to repeat more than one course. But you have to repeat a course that had a letter grade for the same course with a letter grade.

The first thing you need to be clear about is that retaking classes (in most cases) has a minimal effect on your GPA, because retaken classes don't replace your low grades – they average in with them. That's right: your low grade won't be dropped – the retaken class grade will be added to it and averaged.
A failing grade will likely hurt your GPA (unless you took the course pass/fail), which could jeopardize your financial aid. The failure will end up on your college transcripts and could hurt your chances of getting into graduate school or graduating when you originally planned to.
Consider repeating the course. Over 90% of colleges allow undergraduates to take a failed class again to improve their grade. Depending on the school, the new grade may replace the F on your transcript — or both grades may appear, with the new grade replacing the F in your GPA calculation.
If your GPA stays below a 2.0 or you continue to fail classes, the university may enforce a mandatory leave of absence. Students who fail more than one class in a single semester can be dropped immediately from the university even if they were previously in good standing.
This depends on your school. You would not be allowed to sit a class more than three times most of the time. Why may you ask? You would prevent others who’ve not taken the module before from taking it. A limited number of seats might be available.
Let’s say you want to retake a class. If it is the first time you are retaking it, you should have no problem. The question is, should you? You may be dead set on getting an excellent GPA, which is why retaking a module again might be required.
As mentioned, failing a class would bring down your GPA. However, if your school doesn’t use the grade-point system, will failing one class be that big of a deal? The failed grade would show up on your transcript. This would affect your chances of getting into a good grad school.
Unfortunately, you may have failed a class. You’re now thinking of retaking it. What are the chances that you’d fail it again, though? If the study material is challenging, or you have a terrible professor, the chances are unfortunately high.
You might be able to retake it for the fourth time. As mentioned, though, you would have to make an appeal. Whether your request gets accepted or not depends on how well you explain why you need to re-sit again.
If you’re adamant about retaking a class until you get a desired grade, you will end up graduating late. You probably wouldn’t want this, as you would get your degree a year or two later than your friends. Also, you would be paying extra as your course would be prolonged.

De Anza and Foothill College have designated “Course Families” that include related or similar courses from both colleges. You may not enroll more than six times within a family of courses, whether they are offered at De Anza or Foothill.
If you have received an A, B, C, P or CR grade, you may not take that course again unless the official course description specifies that the class is "repeatable."
Since 2013, all “active participatory” courses have been designated as non-repeatable. There is also a limit of six enrollments per student in “active participatory” courses that are related in content. This includes courses in physical education, visual arts and performing arts that are offered within the Foothill-De Anza Community College District.
Counseling, tutoring and other support is available on campus! After the third attempt to pass a course, you may not enroll again unless you successfully petition to show that special circumstances apply, such as.
Repeating Classes and Class Families. If you’re thinking of taking the same class more than once, there are some limitations and rules that you need to know. Under California law, there is a limit to the number of times that you can take the same class at community college.
If you get a W or a substandard grade in the same course twice, De Anza’s online enrollment system will not allow you to enroll for a third time. You will need to request permission from the Admissions and Records office before you can enroll for the third time.
For example, Dance 43, 44, 45, and 46 are grouped together because they are all different levels of contemporary modern dance for the major. A student who repeats Dance 43 (two course enrollments: taking the course initially, and repeating the course), and then completes Dance 44 and Dance 45, has accumulated four enrollments in a group ...
Repetition of Passed Coursework. Santa Monica College permits students to repeat (enroll again in) courses they have already completed, but only under special circumstances authorized by California Code of Regulations Title 5.
Santa Monica College has designated selected courses as being repeatable per California Code of Regulations Title 5 §55041. In some cases, courses are grouped together because they are related in content. These courses may include several levels, but also have a cumulative course repeatability of three (i.e., a total of four course completions is permitted). For example, Dance 43, 44, 45, and 46 are grouped together because they are all different levels of contemporary modern dance for the major. A student who repeats Dance 43 (two course enrollments: taking the course initially, and repeating the course), and then completes Dance 44 and Dance 45, has accumulated four enrollments in a group of courses. As a result, that student may not enroll in Dance 46, because doing so would exceed the maximum number of course repetitions that are permitted. In addition, any Dance course enrollments in which the student earned a grade of D (1.0), F (0.0), NP (No Pass; formerly NC-No Credit), and/or W (Withdrawal) or MW (Military Withdrawal) will count toward the maximum number of enrollments allowed in the course grouping.
Depending on the circumstances, requests to enroll in a course a THIRD time may not be approved. Requests to enroll in a course a FOURTH time (or more) will NOT be approved, except under certain, very limited extenuating circumstances, which must be documented.
Except for courses designated to be taken multiple times ("repeatable"), such as an independent study or research course, credit will be granted only once for each course and only the highest grade earned for that course will be used to calculate a student's grade point average.
Third attempt: Students must obtain the approval of the dean or the dean's designee of their home school or college for a third attempt and can only be registered for a third attempt by their home school or college.
Policy Statement. All students are permitted to attempt a course a second time. A student seeking a third attempt must obtain the approval of the student's home school or college. Approval of a third attempt is not guaranteed. Except as permitted by this policy, no student may attempt a course more than three times.
Graduate students who have exhausted course attempts for course (s) required for their major will be unable to graduate from their program. Following the awarding of a degree, no changes in the grade average point average will be made through the repeat process.
The regulation states that students may only receive federal financial aid for ONE repetition of a previously passed course. These regulations prohibit the University from paying for a course that has been passed more than one time.
There is no limit on the number of attempts allowed for the student to repeat a course, as long as he/she does not receive a passing grade in any of the previously repeated courses.
The repeated course (s), including the original attempt, must be counted toward the maximum time frame and hours completion ratio requirements, which can impact your financial aid eligibility. Get detailed information regarding the Satisfactory Academic Progress Policy.
Repeated courses can impact a student’s renewal eligibility for programs with specific grade and hour requirements such as institutional and state grants and scholarships. To review the minimum hours required for each financial aid program, please refer to the Program Eligibility Chart.
Repeated courses are annotated on the transcript as either being “REPEATED, INCLUDED IN GPA” for the second time a course is taken and “REPEATED, EXCLUDED FROM GPA” the first time the course is taken .
Repeating a course more than once requires approval by the appropriate college dean for undergraduate students or Graduate Studies for graduate students. Departments may restrict the repetition of a course if it is a prerequisite to a course the student has already completed with a grade of C– or better.
Courses in which a grade of U was received may be repeated on an S/U basis or letter graded basis. Degree credit for a repeated course is be given only once, but the grades assigned for both the first and second time a course is taken appear on the student’s transcript.
Courses in which a grade of NP was received may be repeated on a P/NP or letter graded basis. Degree credit for a repeated course is given only once, but the grade assigned at each enrollment shall be permanently recorded on the Official Transcript.
Some courses are repeatable for credit if the content of the current course enrollment differs from that of the previous enrollment or may be repeated for credit for a limited number of units or number of times enrolled in the course. If a course is approved to be repeated for credit, the description of the course as published in ...
