How Many Times Can I Repeat a Course? 

A student may repeat a course to change the original grade. The LAST grade earned will become the official grade and will be used to calculate the cumulative grade point average (GPA) - even if the last grade earned is lower than the original attempt.

Students who choose to repeat courses should know:

• Students must repeat the exact course to have the latest attempt replace the first attempt.
• All courses attempted will remain on the transcript.
• Previous attempts are indicated on the transcript.
• Courses will only count toward graduation requirements once, even if both attempts are successful.
• Adjustments to the cumulative GPA are not made for courses transferred from other institutions because no grade points are assigned to transfer credits.
• Grades of "W," "I," or "AU" will not replace the original grade.
• Developmental courses are not included in the Repetition of Courses policy.

How Do I Change My Major or Academic Advisor?

Students wishing to change advisors but keep the same major should see the appropriate Dean for a new advisor to be assigned.

Students wishing to change their major but keep the same advisor should see their current advisor.
