A student may repeat any of the courses that he or she has taken during an undergraduate career at JMU except courses originally taken and passed on a credit/no credit basis. All grades will be included when calculating the student's grade point average. There are, however, certain exceptions to this rule.
Choose the course you wish to repeat and then select Next to continue. Select the term you plan to repeat the course. If you’re repeating a class for which you received an A, B, C, or CR grade, you’ll need to choose the reason for your appeal. Then, select Next.
In accordance with catalog policy, you cannot register online for courses which will result in an invalid repeat. In order to enroll in a course you will be repeating for the third time (fourth attempt), or in a course you have been advised to retake in which you originally earned a grade of “A” or “B,” the procedure is as follows:
Major departments determine course equivalencies. If the student earns a grade of A, B, C, or CR on the second attempt, the grade and any units for the first unsuccessful attempt will be removed from their GPA and units will not count toward the repeat limit.
What is a Course Repeat (a.k.a. Grade Forgiveness)? Also known as Grade Forgiveness, a course repeat is the repetition of a course for the sake of improving upon an earlier unsatisfactory performance in which the new grade replaces the old grade in the calculation of the grade point average (GPA).
Yes. If you are an undergraduate or postgraduate student and your program allows, you may repeat a course more than once. Some programs do not allow for this, however, so check your degree requirements at programs and courses.
Students in most programs can repeat a passed or failed course twice for degree or certificate credit, to a maximum of three attempts per course. Although the previous attempts remain on your academic record, only the most recent attempt counts toward your credit totals and grade point averages.
Retaking a course is a good solution for some students in some situations. It will improve the student's GPA and, although it will not remove the lower grade from the transcript, it will demonstrate that your student is interested in and capable of improving.
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.
Repeating Coursework A course may be repeated only once. Although only the second grade earned (for better or worse) will be computed into your GPA, both grades will remain on your transcript.
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.
If you repeat a course for which you have already earned a grade of "D", you will only receive credits for the course once. Please note: Grades of D , F or J continue to be used in the CGPA/GPA calculation even after you repeat the course or take a supplemental examination.
If allowed to repeat, students must normally repeat a failed course, or year, in the academic year immediately following that in which the failure occurred. A student will be allowed to fail a particular course only once. Any student who fails the same course twice will be required to withdraw from the DVM program.
The simple answer is yes you can. Double majoring or taking multiple programs of study is pretty typical for students here in the US and we offer that flexibility. But one thing to keep in mind is that when combining majors, depending on it, it can change your time towards degree completion.
Students who earned an unsatisfactory grade (i.e., C-, D+, D-, or E) the first time in a course can repeat that course for a grade if they have the dean's approval through CCAS. This approval is granted through the completion of the online Repeat Course Request Form.
According to him, “You are allowed to change courses and institutions not more than two times, if you change the first time and experience an issue, you are allowed to change the second time. He warned candidates against going to unapproved CBT centres for their change of course/ Institution and data correction.
Grades Averaged (Undergraduate Students) Once a student reaches the 16 units for Grade Forgiveness and has not reached the maximum of 28 units, a repeated course will result in a grade averaged and calculated in the GPA.
Students cannot use Grade Forgiveness if the original grade was the result of academic dishonesty. Once a student reaches the 16 units for Grade Forgiveness and has not reached the maximum of 28 units, a repeated course will result in a grade averaged and calculated in the GPA.
Grades Averaged (Graduate/Credential/Certificate Students) Students pursuing second baccalaureates, credentials, certificates, masters or doctoral degrees may not repeat courses for grade forgiveness. Although these students may repeat courses for grades averaged, their courses are not subject to unit limits.
Note: A grade received in a course taken at another institution may not be used to replace a grade in an equivalent course taken at CSULB in the calculation of GPA but may be used to replace it for other purposes, subject to approval by the appropriate authority at CSULB, such as an advisor in the major.
Undergraduate students who wish to attempt an individual course for a third time must obtain approval from their academic advisor. Once an undergraduate student reaches the 28 unit limit, the student will not be allowed to repeat any additional courses without an approved academic appeal.
The course must be repeated at CSULB. Students are not allowed to repeat a course in which they received a grade of A, B, C or CR (except for courses specified as repeatable for credit and upper-division courses in an undergraduate student’s major completed more than ten years prior to graduation).
Repeat a course and have the old and new grades calculated into your grade point average.
Repeat a course and have only the new grade calculated into your grade point average. Even though the old grade stays on your record, it is not factored into your GPA.

You have already completed the maximum of three courses under the GRO option. You have already received a bachelor's degree from the University of Arizona, thus, are ineligible for the GRO option. The course was already repeated under GRO in a previous semester.
As a result of GRO, a student's cumulative GPA is typically recalculated at the end of each terms' grade processing - this is when final grades are available. See the Dates & Deadlines page for more information on when final grades are available for each term.
Grades of “A” or “B” may not be repeated. For more details, please see the official Academic Catalog policy. In accordance with catalog policy, you cannot register online for courses which will result in an invalid repeat.
Repeat Credit or Repeat/Forgiveness options are to be used when a student chooses to repeat a class that the student enrolled in and completed on the undergraduate career at JMU. If you are receiving financial assistance to attend JMU, repeating courses may alter the aid that you receive.

A student who withdraws from a course before the end of the course adjustment deadline will receive a grade of "W" for the course. This grade will be recorded (and will remain) on the student's transcript regardless of the status of the student in the course at the time of the withdrawal.
As a result of the "repeat forgiveness" option, the university will exclude the previous grade and credit hours earned for the repeated course when it calculates the student's cumulative GPA and earned credit hours total, regardless of whether the previous grade was higher or lower than the repeat attempt.

We can categorize all instructional activities into two basic categories: 1 Stuff that the Instruction or Instructor does, and 2 Stuff that the Learner does. Within these categories there are four basic strategies for creating excellent instruction: tell, show, do, and apply.
New technologies, theories, and processes are continually created and touted as the next greatest thing for instructional designers. And while these new technologies can be powerful, there are a few key instructional strategies that must be implemented to maximize learning effectiveness.
