When a course is retaken, the second and subsequent attempts are each called a repeat. The highest letter grade earned is included in the GPA calculation and all others are excluded or forgiven.
The official transcript will list each attempt of the course and its grade. The course included in the GPA is designated with an “I” and those excluded from the GPA are designated with an “E.” (Repeated courses taken prior to the 2024 Fall semester may be designated with an “A” indicating the grade is being averaged with other attempts. If the course is repeated in or after the 2024 Fall semester, the student may submit the Course Forgiveness form to request a review of all attempts of the course to ensure each is properly designated as included or excluded.)
A student may repeat a course more than once, but the course may be counted only once toward fulfillment of credit hours for graduation.
Course Forgiveness may not be applied to NUR courses.
Course Forgiveness may impact the student’s Satisfactory Academic Progress (SAP) for financial aid eligibility and continued eligibility.
