Students may retake a course once to improve a grade lower than C or if the grade earned does not meet admission or progression requirements for a major. Both grades received in the course are entered on the transcript. The higher of the two grades will be used in calculating the grade point average.
A retake course is a course that was passed with a C or better on the first attempt, but the student chooses to take again to improve the grade and/or contribute to the required number of pre-nursing credit hours at IU Southeast needed to qualify for priority admission status.
Privacy policy. Thank you. If a candidate does not achieve a passing score on an exam the first time, the candidate must wait 24 hours before retaking the exam. At that time, candidates can log onto their certification dashboard and reschedule the exam themselves.

*May require post-baccalaureate/graduate/professional education or additional certifications/credentials to qualify for employment. "I chose to major in kinesiology because it has a very wide range of nursing prerequisites and I was also interested in exercise and movement.
Per Title 5 regulations, the student can only repeat the course twice (thus can only take the course three times). (2) When a student repeats a course to alleviate substandard academic work, the previous grade and credit will be disregarded in the computation of the 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. Some schools, however, average the two grades and include the averaged grade in the GPA.
Pass grades will be indicated on your transcript with a P. ★ A grade of C- or better is still required for prerequisite course. You may pass a course with a D- or better, but you will be required to retake the course and earn a C- or better to satisfy prerequisite(s).
Academic Renewal is the process for removing previously substandard academic grades from your record. Academic Renewal is used in situations in which a past substandard grade does not reflect your current demonstrated ability.
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.
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.
Repeats and forgiven courses may not be looked upon favorably by some employers and by professional or graduate schools. Students shall be allowed to repeat no more than three (3) courses with grade replacement, and to forgive no more than three (3) courses.
The deadline for Withdrawal is the last day of class prior to final exams for all parts of term. Withdrawal is accomplished by either 1) executing a withdrawal on the registration website or 2) by submitting a Registration/Schedule Adjustment form to the Office of the Registrar.
Admission Requirements An applicant with a grade point average of 2.9 and a composite score of 20 on the ACT or an equivalent SAT score, for example, is considered a strong candidate for admission. UAH does not require letters of recommendation or an essay for admission consideration.
Your “GPA” gets a re-start at a new college GPA is separate for each college, it's not one continual thing. You will have a different GPA for each college. For example, if you had 2.0 GPA at SCCC and you transfer to MU, your GPA will start from scratch at MU. That's a good thing!
The transcript displays the official record of classes students enroll in during school, so most grades cannot be changed or removed.
Haro said the process of Academic Renewal cannot be applied to a W on a transcript, only substandard grades weighing down a GPA. It does not take the grade off of a transcript, but marks the grade as academically renewed and does not incorporate the grade results into the overall GPA.

The SFSU course repeat policy was developed in response to Executive Order 1037: Grading Symbols, Minimum Standards Governing the Assignment of Grades, Policies on the Repetition of Courses, Policies on Academic Renewal, and Grade Appeals. At the time the Academic Senate declined to authorize grade forgiveness, in which a new grade replaces the former grade in terms of calculation of the GPA. This policy addresses this omission. In addition, the original policy, developed before the implementation of Campus Solutions (CS), counted AU and W grades in the repeat count. As CS is not capable of counting AU and W grades for the purposes of course repeat counts, The Academic Policies Committee is recommending their removal from the policy.
In this policy, “repeat” means to enroll in a course for which a grade has already been assigned. “Grade” refers to all grading symbols defined in CSU Executive Order 1037 (effective August 1, 2009). These include administrative grading symbols (AU, I, IC, RD, RP, W, and WU), traditional grades (A, B, C, D, and F, and their plus and minus designations), and non-traditional grades (CR and NC).
Undergraduate students may repeat a maximum of 16 units of coursework taken at San Francisco State University for the purpose of excluding the original grade from grade point determination (i.e. grade forgiveness). When a course is repeated, up to the 16-unit limit, the lower of the two grades is “forgiven” from the GPA calculation. Grade forgiveness shall not be applicable to courses for which the original grade was the result of a finding of academic dishonesty. All units attempted, and all grade points after the repeat limit has been reached, will be included in the student's cumulative totals. If a student chooses to repeat a course in which the grade was passing (D- or higher) after reaching the repeat limit, all units attempted and all grade points earned will be used in the calculation of the student's grade point average (GPA), but the units earned will be applied to the calculation of total units earned only once. Exceptions to this method of GPA calculation are available, as described in Academic Senate Policy S87-148, “Academic Renewal Policy”; the provisions of S87-148 are not superseded by this course repeat policy.
Repeating More Than 28 Units. An undergraduate student cannot repeat any course once the student has repeated 28 units at SF State, unless the course is described in the current SF State Bulletin as repeatable for credit.
Exceptions to this method of GPA calculation are available, as described in Academic Senate Policy S87-148, “Academic Renewal Policy”; the provisions of S87-148 are not superseded by this course repeat policy.
Once a bachelor's degree has been granted, repeating courses for any reason (e.g., as a visitor, post-baccalaureate, or College of Extended Learning student) will not affect the GPA or content of the degree already granted.
Repetition of a Course with a Grade of “I”. A student cannot repeat a course for which a grade of “I” was issued until the “I” is converted to a grade. This restriction does not apply to enrollment in a variable-topic course, if the repeat will be for a different topic.
If a student in fact takes the course twice, both instances should be recorded. As specified by the rules, unless the first grade was a failure, only the first grade will be calculated into the student's GPA, and the course will count as one credit unit toward graduation.
While students should be encouraged to revise what they have written and should be offered opportunities to rewrite term papers , it is important to guard against granting Incompletes for assignments comprising so much of the course that students are essentially allowed to retake it without re-registration.
A student may, however, repeat a course in order to demonstrate his or her ability to achieve a better grade. This second grade will be reflected on the student's transcript, but no credit will be awarded for the repeated course, and it will not be averaged into the student's cumulative average.
A student may repeat a course in which an F has been received. The grade of F remains on the record and continues to be counted into the cumulative average even if the student repeats the course with a passing grade. Students who fail major or major-related courses may be required to repeat these courses at the discretion of the major advisors.".
These are excerpts from the University's Undergraduate Academic Bulletin: "The Incomplete designation may not be used to allow a student to repeat the course in a subsequent semester. If a student must repeat a course in order to complete the work for it, he or she must re-register for that course for credit in a subsequent semester.".
The Student Dispute Resolution Policy for the College of Public Health and Human Sciences (CPHHS) provides students with a mechanism to address and resolve questionable treatment by members of the CPHHS including faculty, staff and administrators .
Undergraduate students may petition once with the Registrar to exclude OSU courses from the calculation of institutional requirements, credits, and grade point average, under a condition of the academic fresh start policy. (It is AR 31 on the regulations page)
General Microsoft Certification exam retake policy. If a candidate does not achieve a passing score on an exam the first time, the candidate must wait 24 hours before retaking the exam. At that time, candidates can log onto their certification dashboard and reschedule the exam themselves.
A candidate may not take a given exam any more than five times in a 12-month period. This 12-month period starts from the first attempt. The candidate is then eligible to retake the exam 12 months from the date of the first attempt. You cannot retake an exam that you have passed unless your certification has expired.
If the candidate fails the beta exam, it can be retaken once the exam is live. If the candidate fails the exam once it’s live the general retake policy stated above applies to all subsequent attempts. This policy supersedes the general retake policy.
Beta exam retake policy. Beta exams may be taken only once during the beta period. If the candidate passes the exam (determined after the beta period ends), it counts toward credit for the certification. If the candidate fails the beta exam, it can be retaken once the exam is live.
