14. Retaking a Course (Formerly Academic Regulation 17)

a.  Students may retake any course. Each course counts only once as credit hours in the academic program.  Permission must be obtained from the Dean’s Office for a third or subsequent attempt at a course. In accordance with Regulation 7b, only the highest grade is included in the cumulative GPA.

b.  In the cases where courses have been renumbered, changed in level, or where a six (6) credit hour course (formerly referred to as a “full course”) has been split into two three (3) credit hour courses (formerly termed “half courses”) or vice versa, a student who received credit hour recognition for the original course is not entitled to repeat the course in its new format or on its new level for additional credit hour recognition.

NOTE:

• It is recommended that students who wish to repeat a passed or failed course meet with an Academic Advisor prior to registering or seeking permission from the Dean or designate.
