Repeating a Course

You may repeat a course in which you received a failing or low grade. Although the original course and grade will remain on your transcript with a notation that you repeated the course, only the quality points for the repeated course will be computed in the cumulative GPA. This is true even if the grade earned in the repeated course is lower than the grade originally earned. Courses graded on an “S/U” basis and credit types of life experience and transfer are not calculated in the grade point average. Health Technologies students should refer to their program handbook or program director for additional information about acceptable grades and limitations for repeating courses. Financial Aid restrictions may apply to repeated coursework. A student intending to repeat a course and use financial aid should contact the Financial Aid Office prior to registration. The college’s policy regarding this subject, AP 565 – Repeating a Course, may be found in the appendix.
